ORD-Q Apv Sign Waiver (Appl SW-26-10) at 960 Girvin Rd, Btwn Wilderland Dr & Singleton St - Diocese of St. Augustine - Req to Reduce the Min Setback from 20 ft to 12 ft in RLD-80 & RR-Acre (R.E. # 162200-0110) (Dist. 3-Lahnen) (Mehta) (LUZ)

The City Council of Jacksonville is reviewing an ordinance that would approve a sign waiver for a property located at 960 Girvin Rd. The applicant is the Diocese of St. Augustine, and the request is to reduce the minimum setback from 20 feet to 12 feet in the RLD-80 and RR-Acre zoning districts. The item is currently pending, having been introduced on September 22, 2026, with a public hearing scheduled for October 13, 2026, and a Land Use and Zoning committee hearing on October 20, 2026. The posted record does not include any further detail about the project beyond this sign waiver request. Because the item is only a request to adjust a setback for a sign, the concrete scope of work is limited to the installation or modification of a sign on the property. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers who could compete for this work include sign fabricators and installers, electricians for sign lighting, and concrete or masonry contractors for the sign foundation. Reaching out early, before the waiver is approved and permits are settled, is the advantage for businesses that want to be considered for this specific scope of work.
