2. CONSIDERATION WITH DISCUSSION, PUBLIC HEARING AND RECOMMENDATION
2.1 Small Scale Future Land Use Map Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan:
Property at County Road 452/N SR 19/Northshore Drive
Lori Barnes, Development Services Director, reviewed the proposed future land use
amendment for property located at CR 452/N SR 19/Northshore Drive. She
explained a brief presentation would be provided at the Local Planning Agency
meeting with a full presentation at the Commission meeting . She noted that Greg
Beleveaux, representing the owner Build REI, was present to answer any questions.
She explained the proposal is to change 5.59 acres from Suburban Residential to
Mixed Commercial/Residential. She indicated the proposed designations are
compatible with the surrounding area and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
and Land Development Regulations and stated staffs recommendation for
transmittal.
Chairman Holland opened the public hearing at 5:53 p.m .
Stan Wade expressed concern about the traffic on Northshore and questioned
whether or not the project would open onto Northshore.
Ms. Barnes explained that a concept plan is not required for a comprehensive plan
amendment and why. She indicated the MGR designation would allow a broad
array of uses and the ultimate site design would be dependent on the uses being
proposed and on the traffic study submitted at the time of site plan review. She
stated that if a commercial use is proposed staff will likely limit access onto

residential use is proposed access to Northshore could be allowed depending on the
density proposed.
