Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final June 3, 2025 <br />designated RM -6 and the southern 13.2 acres remaining RS -6. The rezoning aimed to <br />facilitate the development of townhomes in the southern portion, creating consistent <br />zoning throughout the area. The site was undeveloped and bordered by 9th Street <br />SW to the north and the Grace Woods subdivision to the southwest. Designated as <br />L-2 (Low -Density Residential -2), the area allowed for up to 6 units per acre and <br />included both single-family and multi -family uses. The proposed RM -6 zoning was in <br />alignment with the existing Future Land Use (FLU) Designation and did not seek to <br />increase density, ensuring cohesive development under unified zoning. Future <br />development would comply with applicable Land Development Regulations (LDRs). <br />The presentation displayed zoning maps and analyzed the request to ensure that it was <br />consistent with FLU Designations. Staff concluded it was consistent and compatible <br />with the surrounding area and recommended approval. Mr. Murphy noted that he <br />had received calls from nearby residents regarding the property, all of whom <br />expressed satisfaction with their general inquiries, and he reported no objections to <br />the rezoning proposal. <br />Neither the Board nor the Applicant had questions of staff. <br />There being no further comments, the Chairman closed the public hearing. <br />A motion was made by Vice Chairman Loar, seconded by Chairman Flescher, to <br />approve staff's recommendation and Ordinance 2025-008, amending the zoning <br />Ordinance and the accompanying Zoning Map for approximately 13.2 acres <br />located on the south side of 9th Street SW, Approximately 0.57 of a mile west of <br />7th Road SW and approximately 0.35 of a mile east of 20th Avenue SW, from <br />RS -6 Single -Family Residential District, to RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential <br />District; and providing codification, severability, and effective date. The motion <br />carried by the following vote: <br />Aye: 5- Chairman Flescher, Vice Chairman Loar, Commissioner Adams, Commissioner <br />Earman, and Commissioner Moss <br />B.
