Board of Adjustment Meeting · 2026-04-15 · agenda_item

The City of Cocoa Board of Adjustment is reviewing a site plan amendment for a nonresidential development. The applicant needs to show how they will meet landscaping requirements, including a five-foot wide strip along public roads, one tree for every fifty feet of road frontage, and a two-foot high landscape barrier. Additionally, areas used for vehicles and working bays must be screened to reduce visibility from nearby properties. This review is currently planned, meaning the project is in its early stages. Addressing these landscaping needs will likely involve site clearing and grading, installation of trees and shrubs, and potentially construction of screening barriers. Contractors specializing in site preparation, landscaping, and potentially minor construction for screening could find opportunities. Engaging early in the site plan amendment process may offer an advantage before final plans and permits are issued.
