body
Background:
The applicant and property owner, Tarpon Waterfront Village LLC, is requesting a small scale plan amendment to amend Charlotte County FLUM Series Map #1: 2030 Future Land Use, from Preservation (PR) (11.01± acres), Parks and Recreations (PKR) (8.57± acres), and Low Density Residential (LDR) (0.75± acres) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) for 11.05± acres and PR for 9.28± acres.
The applicant is also seeking a Planned Development (PD) rezoning for the property. The property includes five parcels; four parcels located at 4420 or 4444 Crews Court, 4331 and 4399 Willow Street, and 4400 Lister Street, in the Port Charlotte area, and one unaddressed parcel generally located north of the Peace River, south of Edgewater Drive, west of Bayshore Road, east of Lister Street and southeast of Crews Court, in the Charlotte Harbor Community Redevelopment area and in the Port Charlotte area.
The entire property contains approximately 20.33+ acres and located in the Tropical Storm Surge zone of the Coastal High Hazard Area. The subject property is located inside the Urban Service Area and the portion of the property for the proposed residential development is designated as Revitalizing Neighborhood on the 2050 Framework Map. The proposed small scale Plan Amendment for the portion of the property to MDR and a companion PD rezoning with the proposed conditions will ensure that onsite wetlands are protected and preserved in perpetuity and that outdoor lighting is shielded or directed to prevent light from shining beyond the boundaries of the subject property. The onsite wetland will create a natural buffer between the existing single-family homes and the proposed multifamily development. It is staff’s professional opinion that the proposed Small Scale Plan Amendment is not contrary to the County’s Comprehensive Plan.
What Action will be accomplished?
If the Board of County Commissioners approves this small-scale plan amendment and its associated PD rezoning (PD-24-08), it will allow for residential development of up to 110 units on portion of the property, the existing yacht club and the proposed fitness center.
