Council approves lot line adjustment for properties at 450 Gulf Shore Blvd S and 45 Fifth Ave S with neighbor condition
Summary
Council approved a subdivision replat (lot‑line adjustment) between two parcels; the applicants agreed to a neighbor condition establishing a 45‑foot setback and prohibiting courts in the conveyed portion to resolve adjacent concern.
City Council on Wednesday approved a preliminary and final record replat that adjusts a shared lot line between properties at 450 Gulf Shore Boulevard South and 45 Fifth Avenue South.
What was proposed: The petition modifies an existing shared lot line so that one parcel becomes slightly larger and the other slightly smaller; no additional density is proposed and both resulting lots meet minimum lot size and zoning requirements.
Neighbor outreach and condition: The Planning Advisory Board requested petitioners engage with an immediate neighbor, the Kaplers at 40 Fourth Avenue South. Petitioners negotiated a mutually agreed condition: any vertical construction in the portion conveyed to the northern lot must be set back 45 feet from the shared property line, and no basketball or multipurpose courts will be constructed within that 45‑foot area. The Kaplers sent a written statement of support after the condition was added.
Staff findings and vote: Planning staff found the lot‑line adjustment met subdivision standards; council approved the replat with the agreed condition. The motion passed unanimously.
Implementation: City staff will record the replat and enforce the added setback condition as part of future permitting for any vertical construction on the modified parcels.
