Board backs ENCPA map‑series changes; applicant says DSAP entitlements unchanged

Nassau County Planning and Zoning Board · May 5, 2026

Summary

The board recommended approval of CPA 26‑001, a map‑series amendment to the East Nassau Community Planning Area that shifts acreage from employment center to residential tier 2 (adding roughly 322 acres of tier‑2 residential and replacing about 333 acres of employment center); the applicant said the DSAP entitlement (4,038 units, 7.1M sq ft nonres) is unchanged and the county is negotiating a ~225‑acre conservation acquisition.

Staff outlined a map‑series amendment for the East Nassau Community Planning Area (ENCPA) southern planning area that rebalances sub‑land‑use categories. Elizabeth Beck said the proposal increases the area designated for tier‑2 residential by about 322 acres while converting roughly 333 acres previously shown as employment center to residential subcategories; staff maintained the changes are consistent with the comprehensive plan and the DSAP entitlement.

Applicant representative Wes Hinton (Radiant) told the board the DSAP 1 overall entitlement — 4,038 residential units and 7.1 million square feet of non‑residential space — is not changing as part of the amendment. Hinton also said the county is under contract to acquire about 225 acres in the southern portion for conservation and recreation, leaving a relatively small developable footprint in the amended map series.
