Clearwater City Council to Consider Key Land Use and Development Changes

Clearwater residents should note several significant land use and development proposals slated for review by the City Council. Among the items on the upcoming agenda are requests for flexible development approvals and amendments to the city's Future Land Use Map and Zoning Atlas.

One notable action item, ID#26-0400, involves a Flexible Development approval for the conversion of a property at 375 Turner Street in downtown Clearwater into a medical clinic. This project seeks flexibility for reduced off-street parking and modified landscaping through a Comprehensive Landscape Program. Additionally, ID#26-0401 requests Flexible Development approval for an existing 1,838 square foot commercial dock with a new boat lift at 125 Island Way in the Island Estates area, accessory to 27-unit attached dwellings.

Further changes include proposed amendments to the city's Future Land Use Map and Zoning Atlas for the property located at 1399 Pineapple Lane. ID#26-0402 seeks to amend the Future Land Use Map from Residential Low (RL) to Recreation/Open Space, while ID#26-0403 aims to change the Zoning Atlas from Residential Agriculture (R-A) to Open Space/Recreation (OS/R).

These items, along with others such as the National Safe Boating Week Proclamation (ID#26-0407) and the Medal of Courage Award Presentation to Fire Fighter Charles Stokes (ID#26-0395), are currently listed as 'Agenda Ready' for an upcoming City Council meeting. Residents interested in these developments are encouraged to review the full agenda when it becomes available.
