It is requested that the Planning & Zoning Board conduct a public hearing to consider a change of zoning classification from BU-1 (General Retail Commercial) to BU-2 (Retail, Warehousing, and Wholesale Commercial).
End
Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a change of zoning classification from BU-1 (General Retail Commercial) to BU-2 (Retail, Warehousing and Wholesale Commercial) to build a self-storage mini-warehouse facility along with outdoor storage for RV’s and boats.
The BU-2 zoning classification permits retail, wholesale and warehousing commercial land uses on minimum 7,500 square-foot lots. BU-2 is the most intense commercial zoning classification allowing for outdoor storage.
The existing commercial development to the north includes a 18,840 square-foot Tractor Supply Company. The abutting parcel to the south is zoned BU-1 and AU (Agricultural Residential) and developed with a single-family residence on the BU-1 portion. The closest BU-2 zoning classification is approximately 230 feet south, along the east side of U.S. Highway.
The Board may wish to consider whether the proposed zoning request is consistent and compatible with the surrounding area.
The Board of County Commissioners will consider the request on Thursday, May 4, 2023, 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.
