Council approves rezoning to allow reconstruction of hurricane‑damaged home on Kenilworth Boulevard
Summary
Ordinance 15‑54 rezoned a 0.1919‑acre parcel at 3611 Kenilworth Boulevard from commercial (C‑1) to residential (R‑2) to permit reconstruction of a single‑family home damaged in a hurricane; staff recommended approval and no public opposition appeared at the hearing.
The City Council approved Ordinance 15‑54 on Oct. 7 to change the zoning of a roughly 0.1919‑acre parcel at 3611 Kenilworth Boulevard from C‑1 (commercial) to R‑2 (two‑family/residential) to permit reconstruction of a home that was damaged by a hurricane.
Jeff Schmucker of the Central Regional Planning Council presented the application on behalf of Dewberry Engineering and property owner Denise Hamilton. Schmucker said the property’s future land use is mixed use and the requested R‑2 rezoning is consistent with the surrounding block, which contains residential uses. Staff identified no new impacts from the proposed reconstruction.
No members of the public spoke in opposition during the hearing. Council moved to approve Ordinance 15‑54 and adopted the ordinance following a roll call vote.
The rezoning will allow the property owner to rebuild a residential structure on the parcel under R‑2 standards; any building permits or other development approvals will follow applicable city regulations and permit review.
