c. Ordinance No. 2026-16/MAP2026-0006: (First Reading/Public Hearing)

City Council Meeting · 2026-04-14 · agenda_item

The City of Melbourne is considering a zoning change for a property located in Brevard County. The property owner has requested annexation into the city to connect to the city's water system. The proposal is to establish R-1A (Single-Family Low Density Residential District) zoning. This change would allow for a maximum density of 6 units per acre, aligning with the property's current single-family residential use and existing lot sizes of at least 7,500 square feet. The Planning and Zoning Board has recommended approval of this request. This item is currently under review, having passed its first reading and public hearing. If approved, the project would involve site preparation, utility connections, and construction of single-family homes. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers should reach out early to understand the project details as plans develop.
