C. Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 09-2020, rezoning request (RZ20-0002) for a
+16 acre tract from Residential Estate One (RE-1) to Residential Planned Unit
Development (RPUD), at second and final reading - Ron A. Paradise, Planning
and Development Services (386) 878-8610.
Strategic Goal: Economic Development - Create more diversified & high-quality
housing opportunities to provide for all market demands.
Background: The City of Deltona received an application for a rezoning to change
the zoning on a ±16 acre parcel from RE-1 to Residential Planned Unit
Development (RPUD). The project is planned to feature 61 lots for
detached single family dwellings. The minimum lot size within the
project is 4,800 square feet. The project, known as Three Island Lake
South, is located west of the intersection of Lake Helen Osteen Road
and Collingswood Drive. The project will have one access point to Lake
Helen Osteen Road but will be designed with a vehicular stub-out to
vacant property situated to the west. The intent of the stub-out is to
promote efficient connectivity between land uses independent of the
City thoroughfare network. The project features community amenities
including a small dog park and an open play area. For more information
City of Deltona Page 4 Printed on 9/16/2020
City Commission Regular Commission Meeting September 21, 2020
relating to the project see the attached staff report and related graphics.
All PUD zoning actions are associated with a written Development
Agreement (DA). The Three Island Lake South DA is attached. The DA
illustrates how the property will be developed by articulating
requirements such as minimum lot sizes, setbacks, etc.
On July 15, 2020, the Planning and Zoning Board heard the Three
Island Lake South RPUD rezoning request. The Planning and Zoning
Board voted six (6) to one (1) to forward this ordinance to the City
Commission with a recommendation to deny the RPUD rezoning
request. The rationale for the Planning and Zoning Board
recommendation to deny the rezoning request was because the project
was too dense and there was not ample demonstrated need for more
development within the City.
Upon approval of this item authorizes any and all necessary actions,
documents or budget transfers to facilitate Commission approval and
further authorizes the Interim City Manager to sign any documents
necessary to further Commission approval of this item.
