Land Use Village Council Meeting · 2026-07-09 · agenda_packet

Islamorada Village Council considered a dock length variance request for 18 Avacado Street. The applicant, Glen Boe & Associates, Inc. for David Van Sant, sought to develop a pier-type dock with a 4' x 145' access walk and a 160 sq ft terminal platform, totaling 740 sq ft. The property is in the R1 Zoning District and RM Future Land Use category. Staff recommended approval, finding the request met criteria for community character, public use, marine resources, and navigational safety. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued a Letter of Verification (SAJ-2024-03780) and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection deemed the application exempt (File Number 44-0452217-001-EE). Public comment was requested by Matthew and Suzanne Smoczynski of 19 Avacado St. The document does not state the final decision of the Village Council, only the staff recommendation for approval and the draft resolution.
