Board authorizes public hearing to reconsider platting stipulation for Twin Laurel rezone
Summary
After hearing from county staff and the developer’s attorney about hurricane-driven delays in platting, the board authorized staff to advertise a July public hearing to consider striking or modifying stipulation #2 in rezone 22-52 that requires a commercial subdivision plat prior to conveyance.
The county commission directed staff to advertise a public hearing in July to consider modifying or removing a condition in rezone number 22-52 that required recording a commercial subdivision plat before conveyance.
Matt Osterout, director of Planning and Development Services, summarized the original ordinance and the four conditions attached to the rezone, drawing attention to stipulation number 2. Jeff Boone, representing the property owner and master developer, said site development plan approvals were delayed because of last year’s hurricanes and that current code provisions already prevent issuance of certificates of occupancy before a plat is recorded. Boone asked the board to authorize a public hearing to remove or modify the stipulation so the multifamily developer could proceed with conveyance and site-plan filings.
Commissioners asked staff whether deleting the stipulation would create unintended consequences; staff and the developer said existing UDC provisions provide the protection the stipulation intended. The board voted to authorize staff to advertise the public hearing at one of the July meeting dates.
