Board of Adjustment Meeting · 2026-04-15 · agenda_item

The Board of Adjustment for the City of Cocoa is reviewing a request for a variance related to Lot 39, Block F, within the Fern Meadows Phase Two Planned Unit Development. This property is a 0.12-acre single-family residential lot currently holding a home built in 2006. The applicant seeks permission to build a screened patio that would extend into the required rear yard setback. The subdivision's plat and PUD design include specific constraints like drainage easements and stormwater management areas, which dictate lot usage. For this lot, a 10-foot private drainage easement along the rear property line, combined with the setback rules, limits buildable space in the backyard. This review is in its early stages, allowing interested parties to engage before final decisions are made. The project involves site preparation for a patio addition, potentially including minor grading and concrete work, followed by the installation of the screened enclosure and related finishes. Contractors specializing in residential additions, concrete, framing, screening, and potentially landscaping services could find opportunities. Engaging early allows businesses to understand project needs and prepare for potential bids once approvals are granted.
