Summary

On March 3 the Planning Commission approved Ajax design alternative and site plan 6-0, recommended Triton’s comprehensive plan amendment 6-0, and recommended rezoning for Triton 4-2 after resident opposition over private Substation Road conditions.

Key actions at the Venice Planning Commission March 3 meeting:

- Ajax (50504 Jean Green Road): Design Alternative Petition 25-61 DA — Approved 6-0. Site and Development Plan Petition 25-40 SP — Approved 6-0. Approvals include a stipulation to preserve easement access during construction; site-level engineering and recorded easements required prior to closing the existing access.

- Triton (490 Substation Road): Comprehensive Plan Amendment Petition 25-63 CP — Recommended to City Council 6-0 (staff found consistency with the comprehensive plan and Florida statutes). Zoning Map Amendment Petition 25-64 RZ — Recommended to City Council 4-2 after public testimony from residents concerned about Substation Road’s private ownership, potholes, lack of sidewalks and flood-prone conditions.

Each recommendation to City Council is advisory; Council will take final action. Staff flagged that private-road maintenance is the responsibility of property owners and that site-plan submittals would need to address access, stormwater and any required engineering or mitigation before permits are issued.
