BOOK �, _� ,�, `� <br />.0 j PAGE76-7 6-7 <br />It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County <br />Commissioners at its regular meeting of July 13, 1999. <br />This is a county initiated request involving three separate parcels, each of which contains <br />environmentally sensitive and environmentally important land now under some form of public <br />ownership. Attachments 2, 3, and 4 show the location of the subject properties. Summarized in the <br />table below, this request involves changing the zoning of each site. <br />This application serves the following three purposes: <br />1. to secure the necessary zoning to reflect the subject properties' public ownership; <br />2, to secure the necessary zoning to ensure that the subject properties' environmental <br />significance will be preserved; and <br />3. to secure the necessary zoning to be consistent with the subject properties' comprehensive <br />plan future land use designation. <br />On May 27, 1999, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 to 0 to recommend that the Board <br />of County Commissioners approve the proposed rezoning. <br />State law provides some special requirements for rezoning requests, such as the subject request, that <br />are county initiated and involve more than ten acres. The most relevant of those special <br />requirements are the following: <br />July 13, 1999 <br />0 0 <br />Subject Property 1 <br />Subject Property 2 <br />Subject Property 3 <br />KNOWN AS <br />Jungle Trail Conservation <br />Pelican Island National <br />Coraci <br />Area (Cairns) <br />Wildlife Refuge (including <br />Korangy property) <br />LOCATION <br />SR AIA between Sea Oaks <br />West of SR AIA at the <br />generally bordered by CR <br />& Indian River Shores <br />intersection with Jungle <br />512, I-95, the north county <br />Trail <br />line, and the St. Sebastian <br />River <br />ACREAGE <br />103 <br />533 <br />5,893 <br />OWNERSHIP <br />State of Florida <br />Indian River County, State <br />State of Florida <br />of Florida, United States of <br />America <br />LAND USE <br />C-1, Publicly Owned or <br />C-1, Publicly Owned or <br />C-1, Publicly Owned or <br />DESIGNATION <br />Controlled Conservation <br />Controlled Conservation <br />Controlled Conservation <br />EXISTING <br />RM -6, Multiple -Family <br />RS -1, Single -Family <br />A-1, Agricultural District (up <br />ZONING <br />Residential District (up to 6 <br />Residential District (up to <br />to 1 unit/5 acres); and A-2, <br />units/acre) <br />1 unit/acre); and A-1, <br />Agricultural District (up to 1 <br />Agricultural District (up to <br />unit(10 acres) <br />1 unit/5 acres) <br />Con -1, Publicly Owned or <br />Con -1, Publicly Owned or <br />REQUESTED <br />Con -1, Publicly Owned or <br />ZONING <br />Controlled Conservation <br />Controlled Conservation <br />Controlled Conservation <br />District (zero density) <br />District (zero density) <br />District (zero density) <br />This application serves the following three purposes: <br />1. to secure the necessary zoning to reflect the subject properties' public ownership; <br />2, to secure the necessary zoning to ensure that the subject properties' environmental <br />significance will be preserved; and <br />3. to secure the necessary zoning to be consistent with the subject properties' comprehensive <br />plan future land use designation. <br />On May 27, 1999, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 to 0 to recommend that the Board <br />of County Commissioners approve the proposed rezoning. <br />State law provides some special requirements for rezoning requests, such as the subject request, that <br />are county initiated and involve more than ten acres.
