Planning commission recommends approval of Elite Estates rezoning for 30.94-acre subdivision
Summary
The St. Cloud Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of Ordinance 25-266 (ZMA 25001) to rezone roughly 30.94 acres from county mixed-use to city mixed-use, allowing a subdivision of about 83 single-family homes and 82 townhomes; staff recommended approval and the item advances to city council.
The St. Cloud Planning Commission recommended approval on a zoning map amendment that would convert about 30.94 acres at the northeast intersection of Clay Whaley Road and Wagon Court from county mixed-use zoning to city mixed-use.
Marcus Bastian, deputy director of community development, presented the item as case ZMA 25001 and said staff’s recommendation is "for approval of ordinance number 25 66 for zoning map amendment from mixed, or MXD mixed use county to mix, mixed use city for approximately 30.94 acres of land." He noted the request will be considered as part of a future land use transmittal and adoption scheduled in October and that staff reviewed the required findings under the land development code.
Applicant representatives Cameron Bridal of Hanson Walter and Dave Broadway said construction plans for the property were approved under Osceola County and accepted by the city. "Construction has started on the property," one applicant representative said, and they described the entitlements as 83 single-family homes and 82 townhomes. Bastian confirmed the parcels were recently annexed under Annexation 25003 and that the zoning change stems from converting existing county entitlements to city zoning.
No members of the public spoke on the item during the meeting. A commissioner moved to recommend approval "based on the 16 findings within the land development code," the motion was seconded, and the chair announced the motion "Passes 5 0."
With the commission’s recommendation, the rezoning will move forward to the city council for final action as part of the upcoming land use adoption process. The record on this item noted staff notification to property owners within 500 feet; details about the council hearing date were not specified on the record.
The commission also handled related procedural business at the end of the meeting and scheduled the next commission meeting for early October; location details will be announced by staff.
