* Property Owner: 31st Street, LLC
* Agent: Fred N. Roberts Jr, Esq, Klein & Klein, LLC
* The subject property was a portion of a larger PUD. The original PUD has been expired for over 25 years. This property was shown as residential on the expired PUD but had no specific development standards as it relates to design.
* The property is surrounded on three sides by assisted living facilities and multi-family complexes.
* The traffic study is under review; staff has recommended revisions to the original submittal. An approved traffic study is required before the final site plan is approved.
* The PD plan includes enhanced design features, including Florida-friendly plantings in the buffers and open space, pedestrian walking trails, and enhanced landscaped entrances.
* Taller, four-story buildings are proposed to be located at the interior of the development, with the three-story buildings on the exterior.
* The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval with a three to two vote at their September 11, 2023, meeting.
