8. Cocoa Village Bay Estates Large -Scale Site Plan, Preliminary Plat. (2026 -183).

City Council Meeting · 2026-06-09 · agenda_item

A large-scale site plan and preliminary plat for Cocoa Village Bay Estates is under review. This project proposes seven residential lots on a 7.55-acre site, with 3.33 acres designated for the developed project area. The applicant is seeking approval for this low-density development, which includes plans for stormwater management facilities designed to meet enhanced criteria for discharge into the Indian River Lagoon. The project involves the removal of 207 trees, with required mitigation including on-site replanting and a payment for tree mitigation. The review process has addressed concerns regarding drainage, floodplain management, and potential impacts on water quality and off-site flood elevations. This project is currently under review, with staff recommending approval. The development would likely involve site clearing and grading, underground utility work, stormwater system construction, road and driveway paving, and final landscaping. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site preparation, civil engineering, utility work, paving, and landscaping may find opportunities. Early engagement before final site plans, bids, and permits are settled could provide a competitive advantage.
