better thing to do is to hear that at the County Commission meeting on October 14, 2025; and
he thinks Commissioner Altman was part of the original legislation so he thinks that would
make a lot of sense.
There being no further comments or objections, the Board continued the Declaration by Florida
Commerce of the Brevard Barrier Island Area (BBIA) and EAR-based amendments to the
Brevard County Comprehensive Plan as null and void, to the October 14, 2025, Board of
County Commissioners Regular meeting at 5:00 p.m.

designation CC and RES-15 to all CC, application number 25SS00007, tax account numbers
2611657 and 2611658, located in District 4.
Trina Gilliam, Planning and Zoning Manager, stated Items H.3. and H.4., she will read into the
record together , they are companion applications, however, they will need separate decisions;
Michael S. Palo, being represented by Landon Scheer, requests a Small Scale Comprehensive
Plan amendment, 25S.13, to change the Future Land Use designation from CC and RES-15 to
all CC, under application number 25SS00007, located in District 4; and Michael S. Palo,
represented by Landon Scheer, requests a zoning classification change from BU-1 and RU-1-7
to BU-2 with a Binding Development Plan (BDP), under application number 25Z00029, located
in District 4.
Landon Scheer, Scheer Engineering, stated the family has owned this property for quite some
time; they actually developed the mobile home complex to the west in the 70s and 80s; at that
time, they carved out this parcel that is being discussed tonight for future development always
with the intent to develop it, however, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) had other
plans when they took over one-half of the property with eminent domain for the drainage pond
just north of this property, which left them with an awkwardly-shaped property that had a split
zoning making it difficult to develop; the main request tonight is to unify the zoning across the
property for one commercial zoning and land use; and the request is for BU-2 with a BDP to
restrict all uses to be all BU-1 uses with the addition of contractor office and storage in BU-2,
being the only BU-2 use. He went on to say the property owner currently owns a HVAC and
plumbing contracting company in Rockledge and they are outgrowing their operation now and
are looking to relocate to this property to accommodate their future growth; the request for the
contractor outdoor storage really comes to the owner having the ability to get late evening and
late afternoon deliveries for materials; they are trying to be proactive against potential Code
violations for outdoor storage of materials; they deliver materials in box trucks and drop them
off outside the door; if there are no guys around to bring them inside, then they would be left
outside overnight until someone could get them in the morning and bring them inside; and this
is being proactive against Code violations, it not being an allowable use in BU-1 zoning. He
continued by saying this area is a true mixed use area; there is Curb Pro, Paver Pro, a dentist
office, marine and boat repair, a hair salon, a car spot, VFW, a daycare, commercial, vacant
