Palm Bay council approves annexation, zoning and multiple easement vacations; moves forward on water projects
Summary
The council approved several routine land-use and procurement items — including annexation and a comprehensive-plan amendment for a 33-acre Four Star development — and passed multiple easement-vacation ordinances for private pools. The council also authorized water-utility expansions and preconstruction work for a North RO plant.
The Palm Bay City Council unanimously approved a bundle of land-use and ministerial items Tuesday, including four easement-vacation ordinances for private swimming pools, a voluntary annexation of roughly 33 acres and a small-scale comprehensive-plan amendment to allow the property to receive the city’s lowest-density residential land-use designation.
The council also approved the rezoning of the annexed property (first reading) and accepted procurement items to expand the South Regional Water Treatment Plant and to enter a preconstruction agreement with Wharton Smith for the North reverse-osmosis plant.
Most land-use votes were unanimous, and staff said the annexing developer — Four Star — will extend utilities and commit to right-of-way dedications tied to future construction of St. John’s Heritage Parkway.
