SUBJECT:
Ordinance 17-011 Amending the Zoning Atlas of the City of Fort Pierce to rezone property located at 900 Avenue O from General Recreational Open Space (OS-1) to General Commercial Zone (C-3) FIRST READING
SUMMARY:
- The applicant is requesting the approval of a Zoning Atlas Amendment (Rezoning), for 5.99 acres of property, to place the properties within the General Commercial (C-3) and Neighborhood Commercial (C-2) zones. The affected property within Ordinance 17-011 totals 1.57 acres, and is situated along the south side of Avenue O, east of an unopened extension of 10th Street right-of-way, which the applicant is concurrently seeking abandonment.
- The applicant is seeking approval of a concurrent request to amend the Future Land Use designation of the subject property from Conservation Open Space (COS) to General Commercial (GC), consistent with the applicant's holdings to the east along US Highway 1.
- The applicant is seeking to extend the General Commercial district to encompass the subject property to provide greater opportunity to advance the property as a commercial hub, providing access to retail, grocery, and consumer services along the US Highway 1 corridor.
- A total of 38 notifications of the proposal were mailed to the owners of property located within 500 feet of the subject property. As of March 22nd, 0 responses have been received. An update will be provided to the City Commission at the public hearing.
