Commission approves development‑agreement amendment to enable parcel swap and cross‑access to expand Mojo’s parking
Summary
The commission approved DMA23‑45430, an amendment to a development agreement that swaps two parcels, removes a prior restriction on cross‑access, and adds a small parcel into the agreement to support parking expansion for a neighboring restaurant (Mojo’s).
The Planning and Zoning Commission approved DMA23‑45430, an amendment to a development agreement arising from a land swap between NSC Silver Springs LLC and New Old Town Village LLC.
Growth management staff summarized the change as removing approximately 6.64 acres from one development agreement parcel and adding a roughly 0.5‑acre parcel elsewhere, and removing a restriction that had previously prohibited cross‑access between developments. Staff said the swap will give Mojo’s restaurant expanded parking on the southern parcel and allow the other parcel to develop more effectively with frontage along Silver Springs Boulevard. Staff recommended approval; the applicant’s agent, Jimmy Gooding, said the amendment codifies the property exchange and permits the access connection staff sought.
One resident asked at public comment what would be built on the property; staff advised residents to contact the city for details and noted development will be subject to subsequent site plan approvals. No written opposition was noted in the record. The commission carried the motion to approve DMA23‑45430 in a roll call vote with Branson, Boudreaux, Carlock, Martin, McDonald, London and Lopez recorded as aye.
Why it matters: The amendment clears a path for coordinated development and parking expansion by revising parcel boundaries and removing cross‑access limitations in the development agreement; subsequent site plans and infrastructure work will follow local permitting processes.
