Summary:
The applicant (Beach Villa 900 Ocean Boulevard Condominium, Inc) is requesting Major Site Plan approval in order to construct a 21-story mixed use tower project with 119 dwelling units and approximately 2,200 square feet of commercial space. The development is proposed on two parcels of land: on the east side of North Ocean Blvd is a 79,060 sf lot, and on the west side of North Ocean Blvd is a 10,452 sf lot for a total project area of 89,512 sf (2.05 acres). The building footprint of the proposed building is 55,822 sq. ft. on the 79,060 sq. ft. lot (69.7% lot coverage). The project includes a surface parking lot located on the west parcel directly across North Ocean Blvd from the east project parcel. An application to rezone the property from RM-45 to PD-I is currently in process, and the Site Plan was reviewed under the proposed Rezoning regulations. Thus, a Site Plan approval by the Planning and Zoning Board is dependent upon the pending Rezoning approval. The project also requires a Plat (PZ#21-14000005) and an Air Park Obstruction Permit (PZ# 21-12400001). This site plan was reviewed by the Development Review Committee on April 21 and June 2, 2021, and approved by the Architectural Appearance Committee on July 6, 2021.
The property is located on the east and west sides of North Ocean Blvd and south of NE 10 St.
