End
Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting to change the zoning classification from AU to EU-2 on an 11.13-acre lot to develop a 24-lot subdivision. The subject parcel is currently developed with an 864 square-foot shed. The proposed EU-2 zoning classification requires a minimum lot size of 9,000 square feet, with a minimum lot width of 90 feet and depth of 100 feet, and a minimum living area of 1,500 square feet.
The developed character of the surrounding area is agricultural residential to the west and suburban estate residential use to the east on lots one acre or larger in size along Ford Road. To the east of the subject property is a residential neighborhood (Sherwood Estates) with lots approximately one-quarter acre to one-half acre in size.
While the predominant zoning classification to the east of the subject property is EU-2, this request can be considered an introduction of EU-2 along Ford Road. This request may also be considered compatible with the surrounding area, recognizing existing development trends.
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 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.
