Summary of formal actions taken Jan. 9 by the Fort Myers Beach Local Planning Agency, including CPD boundary expansion, variances and special exceptions.
This is a short summary of formal motions and outcomes recorded at the Fort Myers Beach Local Planning Agency meeting on Jan. 9, 2025.
- CPD boundary expansion (agenda item B): Motion to expand a Commercial Planned Development to add two parcels (to the property at 2525/2518 Estero Boulevard and 2543 Cottage Avenue). Outcome: LPA recommended approval (motion carried unanimously). The matter advances to town council for final action.
- Rezoning and CPD amendment for food-truck park (agenda item A): After extended public comment and discussion, the LPA continued the rezoning and conditions to the next meeting and the town-council hearing on Feb. 11, 2025. Outcome: Continued/postponed; staff to draft refined parking calculations and enforceable conditions.
- Lani Kai variances (VAR-2024-0233): LPA approved a package of variances to allow continued shared parking on the Lani Kai parcel with conditions. The applicant withdrew the variance request that would have removed required hotel parking; LPA conditioned approval on the applicant submitting a consolidated parking plan covering related parcels.
- Estero Beach Club East (special exception): LPA approved a special-exception application to restore pool and pool-deck structures "like for like" that lie seaward of the 1978 CCCL, subject to standard permitting conditions.
- Delmar Avenue variance (VAR-2024-0267): LPA approved variances to side- and front-yard setbacks for a reconstructed single-family house at 63 Delmar Avenue, subject to staff conditions.
Items that will return to the council or require follow-up: the food-truck rezoning/conditions (Feb. 11 town-council hearing); the Lani Kai consolidated parking plan to be submitted to staff in advance of final council action.
Formal action list (for records): attendees recorded several motions; the clerk will publish official resolutions and the 10-day final-agency-action window for items where applicable.
