RECOMMENDATION:

5:48 p.m. - A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of an Ordinance Amending the 2030 Future Land Use Map, LSA-2016-03

That the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) review and adopt an Ordinance amending the 2030 Future Land Use Map, changing the Future Land Use category of a parcel within Section 34, Township 1N, Range 31W, Parcel Number 2101-000-001 totaling 56.80 (+/-) acres, located east of Isaacs Lane, from Industrial (I) to Mixed-Use Suburban (MU-S).

This hearing serves as the second of two required public hearings before the BCC.

BACKGROUND:

The agent requests a Future Land Use (FLU) map amendment to change the FLU category of a 56.80 (+/-) acres parcel from Industrial (I) FLU to Mixed-Use Suburban (MU-S) FLU. The zoning designation for the referenced parcel is Industrial (Ind) District. The applicant is aware that the current zoning and proposed FLU are not compatible. The applicant submitted a rezoning request before the February 7, 2017, Rezoning Planning Board for FLU and Zoning compatibility. The applicant understands that a rezoning approval will be necessary to make the FLU compatible.

The subject parcel can be accessed along Isaac Lane and Beulah Road. It is located north of SR 10 (US 90A)/West Nine Mile Road and south of Interstate 10. The property is surrounded by heavy vegetation to the north and to the east. Residential homes are located adjacent to the south and across Isaac Lane to the west.

The applicant has indicated that the proposed activity will be for an approximate 110-lot subdivision. This is based on the anticipated demand from the expansion of Navy Federal Credit Union Campus, as it move its headquarters to Escambia County.

The subject parcel had a FLU change from MU-S to I case number LSA-2014-02 (14-3ESR) in 2014. Also the parcel was rezoned from Villages Agricultural District (VAG-2), to General Industrial District (ID-2), case number Z-2014-12 on September 4, 2014.
