This item concerns a variance request for property located in Highlands County. The applicant seeks to reconstruct a single-family home that was damaged by a hurricane. The variance is requested to allow for the reasonable use of the land and the property. This matter is currently under review by the Board of Adjustment. If approved, the project would involve the demolition of the existing damaged structure and the reconstruction of a new single-family residence. This could include site preparation, foundation work, framing, roofing, and interior and exterior finishing trades. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers interested in potential work related to rebuilding the home are encouraged to monitor the progress of this variance request. Early engagement before final plans and permits are established could offer a competitive advantage.
