19. The existing zoning classification ( accomplishes, does not accomplish) a legitimate public purpose

Planning Commission · 2026-05-21 · agenda_item

A rezoning application has been submitted for approximately 1 acre of a 23.03-acre vacant property located on Shady Hills Road. The applicant, James O’Brien, represented by Coastal Brokerage & Investments LLC, proposes to change the zoning from AR (Agricultural Residential) to C-2 (Commercial). This change is planned to allow for strip retail development. The application is currently under review by the Pasco County Planning Commission. If approved, this rezoning could lead to site clearing, grading, utility work, paving, and the construction of commercial buildings. Contractors specializing in site preparation, concrete, general construction, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and finishing trades, as well as suppliers of building materials, may find opportunities. Engaging early, before final site plans and permits are issued, could provide a competitive advantage.
