[1000 City Center Circle, Port Orange, Florida; case DCAM-25-0005] The Planning Commission considered an application to amend Chapter 17, Section 29 of the Land Development Code (LDC) for the Planned Commercial-Agriculture (PC-A) zoning district. The proposed amendments aim to update regulations to support continued development in response to market demand, revise the location of allowed uses, and streamline the development review process. Key changes include reallocating approximately 241 acres from the Workplace District to the Community District and 1 acre from Workplace to West Town Center, with a 2-acre increase in West Town Center. A significant proposed change is to reduce the minimum lot width for single-family lots in the Community District from 50 feet to 40 feet, while maintaining the minimum lot area of 5,000 square feet. Staff recommended approval, subject to input on the lot width reduction and legal review. The meeting agenda also included minutes approval and a separate variance application that was denied. This document details zoning and development regulations for various districts, including Residential, Workplace, and Agricultural uses within a Planned Community (PC-A). It outlines specific dimensional requirements, permitted uses, setbacks, building coverage, open space, parking, and signage for each zone. The Workplace district allows for commercial, office/industrial, multifamily residential, and senior independent living communities with specific density and land area limitations. The PC-A district also includes provisions for master development agreements, conceptual plans, and community planning incentives, such as relaxing requirements in exchange for land dedication or financial contributions. Detailed requirements for road construction, traffic circulation, bike and pedestrian paths, conservation, and recreation are also provided. The document specifies that agricultural uses are permitted as an interim use until final site plan or subdivision approval is obtained.
