End
Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is seeking a change of zoning classification from AU to GML(I) for the purpose of building a Fire station. The subject parcel is currently undeveloped.
The proposed GML (I) zoning classification recognizes the presence of lands and facilities which are managed by federal, state and local government, special districts, and nongovernmental organizations providing economic, environmental and/or quality of life benefits to the County, electric, natural gas, water and wastewater utilities that are either publicly owned or regulated by the Public Service Commission. Activities encompassed within this classification include public services such as Post offices, fire stations and libraries.
The developed character of the surrounding area is low-density residential as well as some commercial along N. Courtenay Parkway. The residential parcels in the immediate area are 0.51-acres or larger in size and developed with single-family homes.
The Board may wish to consider if the request is consistent and compatible with the surrounding area recognizing existing development trends.
The Board of County Commissioners will consider the request on Thursday, July 13, 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.
