Staff recommended approval of the annexation, the future land-use amendment and the rezoning.

The applicant, identified in the record as Mister Griffith, addressed the board and provided a mailing address. Board Member Barnes moved to approve the annexation; Board Member Bloch seconded. The motions to annex, amend the future land-use map and rezone the property all passed by unanimous vote.

Staff noted the annexation will allow the property to connect to city sewer and that the change reduces an enclave on the city boundary. Follow-up steps will include any necessary engineering review and coordination on utility connections under city procedures.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Planning Board Meeting 07.01.25","oneSentenceSummary","The Planning Board approved annexation of a 0.67-acre parcel at 2409 President Street into Palatka, amended the future land-use map to residential low and rezoned the site to single-family residential, citing statutory and code compliance.","taxTitle","Palatka, Putnam County, Florida","taxId",54767,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6144477,"Palatka board annexes 2706 Cecil Avenue for city utilities; future land-use and rezoning approved",293,1749000,2042000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5534091-2d66d371de2f0bd728270b03c38e9517&start=1749&end=2042","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5534091-2d66d371de2f0bd728270b03c38e9517/thumbnail_1749000.jpg","/articles/6144477/Palatka/Putnam-County/Florida/Palatka-board-annexes-2706-Cecil-Avenue-for-city-utilities-future-land-use-and-rezoning-approved","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6144477-f219d915849a51b047279dbe45005688/orig.mp4?Expires=1776609790&Signature=CPJxQU8X5hvR~AxQUDLW~6bE2QgSdR8SYhVQ0lLCi~nSqvZxitPX7EXOy1bHK4yI4dSqf77b~ME0q17e1owfcZIMJO2YoP5JTLefsl5vg6zGrQmujtFvVV4hSAY~T~IaJMwzw-ZcJa39K2fJGkCYxizfdvGiYTxBCP834khzoyc4YzFHiPJqq-3OeeAS3UyHcRkn52nNKiKTNMz9HVelvOBIbrDmAdVi0zZ-bJMoOfFrI4HyYW0grLHxtyGV3HPRYPPc~on4oBd04-bZjMrfHNvg1XtfZktMFN-r~ZovGRWXcw0IHbfdNizMYITvm~bJLWJeEiOUTzznknnahWWLRQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Palatka Planning Board on Aug. 5 approved a voluntary annexation of a roughly 39-acre parcel at 2706 Cecil Avenue into the city to allow connection to Palatka’s water and sewer systems. The board also amended the city’s future land-use map and rezoned the parcel to single-family residential.

Planning staff told the board the parcel is currently vacant and that staff reviewed the annexation under Florida Statute 171 and the city’s code; staff concluded the annexation, future land-use amendment and rezoning met applicable standards and recommended approval. The applicant, Brian Ruiz, identified his address in the record as 2706 Cecil Avenue and was present for the hearing.

Board members characterized the parcel as already surrounded on three sides by city limits and noted the annexation would reduce an existing enclave. Board Member Barnes moved to approve the annexation for the purpose of connecting to city water and sewer; a board member seconded and the motions passed unanimously for the annexation, the future land-use map amendment and the rezoning.

At the hearing staff referenced the statutory annexation criteria under Florida Statute 171 and the city code standards applied to rezoning; staff recommended approval on those bases. No public opposition or additional conditions were recorded at the meeting.

The approvals authorize the city to proceed with annexation and associated map and zoning changes; subsequent service connection, engineering, and permitting will follow city processes.","The Palatka Planning Board voted unanimously to annex about 39 acres at 2706 Cecil Avenue into the city for connection to water and sewer, amending the future land-use map and rezoning the parcel from county residential to city single-family residential.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6144481,"Palatka planning board approves McGlory Cove final plat for 100 townhome lots",300,1529000,1829000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5534091-2d66d371de2f0bd728270b03c38e9517&start=1529&end=1829","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5534091-2d66d371de2f0bd728270b03c38e9517/thumbnail_1529000.jpg","/articles/6144481/Palatka/Putnam-County/Florida/Palatka-planning-board-approves-McGlory-Cove-final-plat-for-100-townhome-lots","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6144481-45c1f723766b935cf05208a852c453bb/orig.mp4?Expires=1776609790&Signature=dgp0TL8qG9ptZLV46ESWEsZV3X2scji87slMwoOhd-ezY-x2MkpMnJzEaHs8tDZs2YRGg~ATTysd522weFYrVVptZ7q8VdnP4tzV4LvOBljXwgrk8s1luJsjXSLeW6hnkMUFfNZa2iQV9Mrx8zySyQZ1JaX321bjkb~QNXLfj0diFFr6Hh3JTuxKkFDHRaa93hEqrIBDr5M77UBh2esssEhtOGbMhIJo~fcN4Ax-5cGBxzs5hIj6T9T3tXqY3NhdidrPFFaNZM-cVNDDOpxXhKutWMCWLutzJsjwsCqWJFDWTK4J-QnuPSRAMBk3Vu~I-QVLiYgUwzWyXbkdy-2-MA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Palatka Planning Board on Aug. 5 unanimously approved the final plat for phase 1 of the McGlory Cove townhome subdivision, which establishes 100 lots for townhomes in the city.
