Board of Adjustment Regular Meeting · 2026-09-16 · agenda_packet

[731 S. 14th Street, Fernandina Beach, FL 32034; case BOA2026-0004] The document is a staff report for Board of Adjustment case BOA2026-0004, recommending approval of a variance request for a property at 731 S. 14th Street, Fernandina Beach, FL. The request is to allow redevelopment of a vacant 0.22-acre lot with a triplex (three dwelling units), which is permitted by the R-2 zoning and Medium Density Residential FLUM but requires a variance from Land Development Code Section 1.03.05 (Construction or Demolition of Structures on Combined Lots) because the property was previously improved with a single-family residence. The applicant is Amelia Concepts Rentals LLC, with Charity Weston as agent. The staff report recommends approval, finding the request meets all six criteria for a variance. The document also includes an email thread regarding building height clarification and a letter from the City Manager regarding Comprehensive Plan amendments, but these are not part of the variance project. The document does not state a final decision by the Board of Adjustment, only the staff recommendation. The document does not include any public comment or stakeholder sentiment regarding the variance request.
