Summary

Staff reported a substantially reduced building permit for the former Bush Estate at 2707 Pass‑a‑Grille Way: plans shrank from ~23,000 sq ft to ~4,000 sq ft, meet RU‑2 zoning and RE‑2 setbacks, and were conditionally approved pending revised elevations and screening details.

Staff presented a revised building permit for 2707 Pass‑a‑Grille Way (the former Bush Estate). The new single‑family residence was reduced from an earlier ~23,000 square‑foot proposal to roughly 4,000 square feet and is built to the RU‑2 underlying zoning district; the project meets RE‑2 setback standards and lot size requirements.

Planner Brandon Berry noted the ground floor would primarily be storage/parking with an elevated living level, and staff asked for revised elevations demonstrating screening that meets 80%+ opacity for the passageway side. Staff said the revision was conditionally approved pending submission of the revised elevation and that landscape plans show extensive use of Florida‑native, dune‑friendly planting.

Board members reacted positively to the reduced scale and the landscape approach; no formal votes were taken at the meeting because of lack of quorum.
