Summary

The Pahokee City Commission unanimously adopted a small‑scale future land‑use amendment and a rezoning to allow Camaro Farms Inc. to build a proposed roughly 10,000‑square‑foot office on about 2.28 acres along Bacon Point Road.

The Pahokee City Commission unanimously approved two measures to allow Camaro Farms Inc. to develop an office on roughly 2.28 acres along Bacon Point Road.

On second reading the commission adopted Ordinance 2024‑6, changing the property’s future land‑use designation from “residential low” to “commercial,” and then approved Ordinance 2024‑7, rezoning the parcel from single‑family (SF‑1) to Neighborhood Commercial. Tom Lanahan of the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council told commissioners the proposals meet the city’s comprehensive‑plan consistency and concurrency requirements and recommended approval to permit an approximately 10,000‑square‑foot office building.

Commissioners asked for the property’s exact address and clarification that required utilities and buffers will be provided; staff said services will be available before a certificate of occupancy and that code provisions will manage setbacks, landscaping and parking. Mayor Bab and commissioners voted yes on both measures.

What passed and what comes next: the ordinances clear land‑use and zoning hurdles so the applicant may pursue site plans and building permits. Staff and the applicant did not state a construction start date at the meeting.
