CRA approves Hawkshaw amendment clarifying 5 stories while keeping 100-foot cap and existing density
Summary
The CRA approved the eighth addendum to the Hawkshaw Redevelopment project to clarify that the main residential structure is five stories (an earlier document typo had listed four stories) while maintaining the 100-foot maximum height and contract density; developer says project remains at 227 units.
The Pensacola Community Redevelopment Agency approved an amendment to the Hawkshaw Redevelopment project declaration clarifying that the main residential structure will be five stories, not four, while preserving the project’s existing 100-foot height cap and overall density limit.
Anne Teston (staff) said the seventh amendment currently referenced a four-story main structure and the eighth addendum corrects the verbiage to five stories while leaving all other terms unchanged. Developer Zach Gibbs told the CRA the project remained under its density cap — 227 units versus a permitted 228 — and that the design team will present to the planning board and then submit for building permits in February. The item passed on a 7-0 vote.
Board members asked for ongoing updates about minority-subcontractor participation and for staff to include both Hawkshaw and Baptist updates in monthly reports to the CRA. The amendment was described by staff and the developer as a clarification (a drafting correction), not a change to height or unit counts.
