Board approves ordinance to annex city-owned canal between A1A and Mizel Road
Summary
Planning & Zoning Board recommended annexing approximately 0.24 acres of contiguous canal property (city-owned) into the City of St. Augustine Beach; the motion passed and will be forwarded to the City Commission for required hearings.
The Planning & Zoning Board voted to recommend annexation of approximately 0.24 acres of property — a canal the city already owns — that lies between State Road A1A and Mizel Road.
Why it matters: Annexing contiguous parcels increases the city's official boundary and can simplify management and maintenance of municipal property already owned by the city. Staff said the yellow and blue parcels on the presented map would be included; a purple parcel the city also owns was not included because adding it would create an enclave of St. Johns County inside city limits.
Board action: The board moved and seconded a recommendation to the City Commission to annex the highlighted parcels. No public comment was made on the item and the motion passed by voice vote. Staff read the ordinance title into the record.
Next steps: The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Commission for two public hearings and formal annexation procedures, including required filings at the county clerk and state.
