Zoning Board · 2026-06-11 · agenda_item

This item concerns a request for a hardship variance related to lot development, stemming from the strict application of local land development code provisions. Staff analysis indicates that many homes in the subdivision were built before current zoning rules were in place, and some existing homes already do not meet setback requirements. The specific hardship is being reviewed by the Zoning Board of Santa Rosa County. This review is currently in the planned stage, meaning it is under consideration but no final decisions have been made. If approved, the project could involve work related to existing structures and property lines. This early stage presents an opportunity for contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the process as plans develop. Understanding the nature of the hardship and potential solutions could lead to future work in site adjustments or compliance measures.
