The document indicates comments from Planning, Building, Utilities & Stormwater, Public Works, Code Enforcement, and Fire departments. Planning requires 40 native shade trees, a tree survey for retained trees, a landscape plan for parking breaks, and a buffer type C on the east side. Building has no comments. Utilities & Stormwater require details on individual sewer services, a corrected manhole inside drop, a method for coating the manhole, and evidence of sufficient existing retention from SJRWMD or a stormwater drainage report. Public Works requires crosswalks/pavers across garage door openings, pedestrian connection to the easterly parking area, and bike racks. Code Enforcement requires confirmation that the dumpster area will be fully enclosed with a solid masonry wall, vinyl or wooden fence. Fire has no comments. [101 Alachua Street] Site plan review for the construction of 9 townhome units and ancillary infrastructure in the C-3 zoning district. The project is located at 101 Alachua Street, at the corner of Alachua Street and N. 2nd Street. The applicant is Gulfstream Design Group, LLC, represented by John Tolan of Harbor Development Group and Matt Lahti of Gulfstream Design Group. Key discussion points included tying into the stormwater system, potential fees, backflow preventer requirements, historic district and CRA design guidelines, Certificate of Approval (COA) before Local Development Order (LDO), reestablishing lots of record, bike rack, mail kiosk, dumpster area, proximity to railroad requiring conversation about right of entry, shade tree requirements (40 native shade trees, 2 per 200 sqft per lot), and fire apparatus access (150 ft T-turn around, sprinkler system, alternative access). A summary of comments would be shared with the applicants. [218 Ash Street] Request for a change of use from commercial use to residential on the second floor of the property at 218 Ash Street, in the C-3 zoning district. The applicant is Roman PM, LLC, represented by Raphael Roman. Exterior changes require historic district approval. Interior changes are detailed by the applicant. Tree requirements are not applicable. Fire code requirements include full set of drawings showing separations between commercial and residential levels, fireproofed stairwell, and required second means of ingress/egress. The applicant was advised to seek a design professional to move directly to permitting. [Crane Island Access Gate Entry] Site plan review for Access Gate Entry Realignment for Crane Island Subdivision. The project will create an additional impervious area of approximately 1,600 sqft and add a couple of storm structures. Drainage will remain the same, and no regulated trees will be removed. Pedestrian access to the trail will not change. The City is not liable if a private forced main is impacted during construction. A pre-construction meeting is required. A Formal TRC application should be submitted, and this should be a Site Work permit. Reinstallation of the knot switch should be annotated on the site plan. [700 Airport Rd (2440 Jamestown Rd); case TRC-2026-0003] Formal Site Plan Review for the construction of an aircraft hangar at the Fernandina Beach Municipal Airport.

The applicant would like to expand in the rear by about 400 sqft. The MU-8 zoning has no setbacks except for the front setback, and the maximum impervious ratio is 60%. Tree requirements are in effect due to expansion. Stormwater concerns need to be addressed, and a Utility Connection application is needed, along with a backflow preventer. This expansion will necessitate a civil and full site plan review. Plans should reflect the distance to the other building to assess fire-rated separation. The reconfiguration of the parking area was discussed, suggesting impervious pavers. Chain link fencing is not allowed in MU-8 zoning. Contact Fernandina Beach Main Street regarding site grants for façade.

[204 Ash Street, Fernandina Beach, FL 32034] The Marina Manager reported that the marina is financially ahead of last year, with significant transient revenue. They have reconfigured the dock layout to accommodate an additional annual slip holder and are implementing Dockwa software for better data access. In May, the marina sold 78,000 gallons of fuel. Plans include adding 5 new dome cameras to the docks, with no new cameras planned for the boardwalk area where construction is imminent. Ring cameras will be phased out. Slip holders will be notified a week in advance before moving boats from A Dock to the Dinghy Dock for the rehabilitation project. The Dinghy Dock project is complete, aqua boats have been sold, and the mooring field rehabilitation is in progress. The Fishing Rodeo Kingfish tournament is scheduled for May 30 at Amelia River Waterfront Park. A cruise ship caused brown water, which the Marina Manager will follow up on. The Marina Manager expressed confidence in the marina's future, citing recent 5-star reviews. The Marina Rehab/Brett's demolition project is out for bid, with potential for new fuel tanks depending on budget. A pre-bid meeting was held June 6, and bid opening is July 2. A workshop is scheduled for July 7, with bid award consideration on July 21. The contractor will have 30 days to mobilize, with demolition around Labor Day. The project is expected to last 18 months. The marina may be without fuel for 4-8 weeks, with efforts to maintain temporary fuel line service. Parking Lot A is expected to be mostly closed in August, with a total contract completion time of 460 calendar days. The Seawall Segment 1 Project is facing permitting issues, with plans to bid by the end of June. This project is state-funded and expected to last 6-9 months. FPU is undergrounding electric lines. The seawall will not extend to connect with RYAM. Waterfront Park Phase II Concept design is underway, with public input sought through a town hall charette on June 3. Competing interests and pedestrian conflicts are being addressed in the design. A lighted crosswalk and shoreside facilities for boaters are being considered. The Harbor Master Plan Phases 1 and 2 are in development, with property owner meetings scheduled. The Simmons project includes a seawall and marina component discussions. Demolition and potential reuse of a slab at 115 S. 2nd Street is being bid, with approval consideration in July. The Waterfront Advisory Board reviewed and adopted a draft work plan. The plan's implementation will involve tasks appearing on meeting agendas, with some items like reviewing CRA project conceptual plans running concurrently with developer timelines. The Board prioritized 'waterfront access' as the first goal and emphasized the importance of the boat ramp. Member Nickoloff resigned from the Board due to commitments with the Pension Board. Chair Schaffer mentioned permitting for the Standard Marine building, with plans for cleanup.
