Applicant requests postponement after late staff analysis for America Avenue variance
Summary
An applicant asked the Jacksonville Beach Board of Adjustments to postpone a variance hearing for 3525 America Avenue after receiving staff analysis days before the meeting; the board unanimously agreed to defer the item to the next meeting so the applicant can consult planning staff.
The Board of Adjustments agreed to postpone a related variance application for 3525 America Avenue after the applicant said he received the staff analysis only days before the scheduled hearing and had been unable to meet with planning staff.
The applicant, who identified himself during the hearing, said he "left 3 messages with the senior planner to discuss" the staff report and asked for additional time to confer with city planning so he could address apparent discrepancies between prior guidance and the staff analysis. The board voted unanimously to defer the item to the next regular meeting to allow the applicant and planners to meet.
Board members advised the applicant that a postponement can provide time to coordinate with planning staff and, if the application is substantively changed, it can return for consideration without needing a new filing.
