DADE CITY – The Pasco County Planning Commission recommended approval of three zoning amendments during its Oct. 3 meeting.
All three of the rezoning requests are for properties located in either south central or southeast Pasco County.
The Pasco Board of County Commissioners has the final authority regarding zoning amendments because the planning commission only acts in an advisory capacity.
One of the requests was for a rezoning to allow for the construction of 99 single-family detached units on 76.55 acres south of State Road 52 and west of Old Pasco Road.
Mary Elaine Sharp and Maxine Green submitted the application for the Old Pasco West MPUD Master Planned Unit Development. Attorney Barbara Wilhite, whose law office is in New Port Richey, represented the applicants.
The applicants requested to not have to provide an access point to the north or west due to an existing wetland system and because a portion of the site is adjacent to an Environmental Lands Acquisitions and Maintenance Program property.
One of the conditions of approval is the applicant will need to provide a 340-foot northbound left turn at the Old Mill Road and Old Pasco Road intersection. Improvements will be made to Old Mill Road between Old Pasco Road and the project access.
A date wasn’t given for when commissioners would decide on that rezoning request.
Anodyne 54 LLC/Anodyne 54 LLC (East) is seeking to rezone 1.27 undeveloped acres at the northeast corner of the intersection of State Road 54 and Point Cypress Boulevard from a C-1 Neighborhood Commercial District to a C-2 General
The applicant has volunteered to record a deed restriction to the property to ensure it provides the benefits of commercial development, including adequate employment generation.
Sitex NR Holding LLC is seeking to rezone 1.06 acres on the west side of Ernest Drive, approximately 200 feet south of State Road 54, changed from an A-R Agricultural-Residential District to a C-2 General Commercial District.
The site consists of an unoccupied single-family dwelling.
The applicant has volunteered to record a deed restriction to ensure the property provides the benefits of commercial development, including adequate employment generation.
More than 100 daily trips are estimated to occur from the property after it is developed for commercial uses. Therefore, the applicant will be responsible for the design, construction and right-of-way donation/acquisition for all the improvements needed to provide access from the property to State Road 54, the application said.
Commissioners are scheduled to decide on requests by Anodyne 54 LLC and Sitex during their Nov. 12 meeting.
