Board recommends special-exception approval for boat and RV storage at Doris Street
Summary
The board recommended City Commission approval of a special exception to allow a boat and RV storage facility at 666 Doris Street, with staff noting landscape, fencing and engineered stormwater will be required at site-plan review.
The Planning & Zoning Board voted March 3 to recommend that the City Commission approve a special exception to allow boat and RV storage at 666 Doris Street (SE-5-24). Staff emphasized that the vote concerns only the allowable use in the B-3 district; detailed site-plan requirements (landscape buffers, irrigation, a bottom 4-foot solid fence, top 2-foot open or equivalent vegetation, and stormwater engineering) will be enforced at the site-plan stage.
Applicant representatives (NSB Boat & RV Storage owners) told the board they purchased and cleared the lot, installed chain-link fencing after city direction, placed substantial shell material to stabilize the surface, and invested in fencing and improvements. They said they do not intend to store large RVs in the portion adjacent to homes and are willing to meet engineering and landscape requirements.
Board members discussed visibility triangles, driveway sightlines and impervious coverage limits; staff acknowledged the current sketch is preliminary and that the site-plan review will address spacing, stormwater and tree requirements. On a 4–1 vote the board recommended approval to the City Commission, directing staff to list required site-plan conditions in the transmittal report.
