The Daytona Beach City Commission on Oct. 15 adopted two related land-use measures clearing the way for the Florida Logistics Center, a proposed 276.75‑acre regional industrial park south of Beville Road between Interstate 95 and Williamson Boulevard.

The commission voted to amend the city’s future land use map in accordance with Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statutes and then approved a zoning map amendment to rezone the property from Agriculture to PDG (Plan Development — General) and to adopt the Florida Logistics Center plan district agreement.

Why it matters: The approvals change the city’s long-range land-use designation and zoning for a large parcel near I‑95, allowing a mix of industrial, commercial and residential uses that city staff and the applicant say are intended to support regional logistics operations and related services.

City staff and the applicant’s representative described the approvals and fielded one public comment from a Pelican Bay resident who said neighbors appreciate removal of residential potential from portions of the property and welcomed limited light-industrial and retail uses. Dennis Merzak, the city’s planning director, said the proposal targets mixed-use and industrial development in the city’s growth area and that building occupancy limits would be determined by the Florida Building Code.

What the commission decided: Commissioners voted to adopt the large-scale comprehensive-plan amendment and to approve the zoning change and the plan district agreement. The comprehensive-plan amendment and the rezoning were discussed and voted on as distinct ordinance actions during the Oct. 15 meeting.

Background and next steps: The applicant’s representative, Jessica Gao, attended the hearing and answered questions. The commission’s votes finalize the city-level land-use approvals; subsequent permitting and site-specific development reviews will follow state and local procedures. No effective dates beyond those stated in the ordinances were provided during the meeting.
