Agency recommends small‑scale plan amendment to allow one dwelling on Schauffner parcel

St. Johns County Planning and Zoning Agency · May 7, 2026

Summary

The agency voted 5‑1 to recommend a small‑scale comprehensive plan amendment to reclassify 5.03 acres at 8995 Barrel Factory Road from Agricultural Intensive to Residential A with a text amendment limiting the site to a single family dwelling.

The Planning and Zoning Agency recommended approval of a small‑scale comprehensive plan amendment for a 5.03‑acre parcel at 8995 Barrel Factory Road to change the future‑land‑use designation from Agricultural Intensive (AI) to Residential A and add a text amendment limiting the site to a single‑family dwelling.

Alberta Hipps presented the applicant’s request and explained the property sits among other family‑divided parcels; she asked the board to approve the findings in the staff packet. Mr. Matovina thanked Hipps for her prior public‑service work while identifying her as present for the item.

The board moved to recommend approval of CPA 2025‑12 (Schauffner property) based upon staff findings with the text amendment as proposed; the motion passed 5‑1.

Next steps: the recommendation advances the item to the Board of County Commissioners for final action and any associated rezoning/permitting steps will follow that review.
