Subject:
Title
Consideration of Elements of Ordinance 519-Vacation of Althea Rd and Golf View Dr.
Summary:
As a part of the Phase 3 expansion of the Pelican Golf Club, the applicant purchased several adjacent single-family residential lots along a portion of Althea Road and Golf View Drive. In order to utilize those properties in the expansion proposal, that portion of the ROW would need to be vacated. Upon vacation, the right of way would accrete to the adjacent parcels. It is proposed that a cul-de-sac will be constructed by the applicant on Golf View Drive as a part of the requested vacation. Design of this cul-de-sac will be done in compliance with transportation and Fire Department requirements. Vacation of this ROW would not impede access to and from the existing single-family residences along that portion of Golf View Drive, since Golf View Drive continues to the southwest, and access to Indian Rocks Road can be accomplished at the Osceola Road intersection, approximately 750-feet from the proposed cul-de-sac. The applicant has obtained signatures from surrounding property owners in support of the proposed vacation and is also working with the various utilities to address any issues. Please refer to the application for vacation of ROW and the Phase 3 Narrative. Please note that if approved, this ROW (excluding the cul-de-sac) will have the same Land Use designation of Recreation/Open Space, and the same Zoning designation of Golf Course. Please refer to the staff report and application for additional information.
