BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Previous Commission action/date: N/A
Background: The subject property, which consists of approximately 0.45 acres and is currently zoned RSF-2, Residential Single Family District. The designation of RSF-4, Residential Single Family District, has been requested for the purpose of dividing the lot into two lots, resulting in both lots being 50’x240’. The lot is owned by a brother and sister and they would like to split the lot so each can have their own waterfront lot. There is currently a home on the subject property, but it has to be demolished due to damage from storms. If the rezoning is approved the applicant will also have to receive a variance from the lot width at building line which is 60’.
The Planning Commission considered this request at its August 5, 2021, meeting and voted unanimously to recommend DENIAL to the County Commission. Staff concurs with that recommendation.
