Items for the Planning Commission
CPA-02-19: A Request for a Large Scale Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment – This is a request by David Coffey, Esq., agent, for PR Gainesville Ltd. Partnership, owner, for a text amendment to Alachua County Comprehensive Plan 2011-2030 Future Land Use Element Policy 2.2.1(e) (Springhills Activity Center) providing additional parcel numbers (06038-024-000, 06038-025-000 and 06038-026-000) within the mixed-use portion of the Activity Center and amending FLUE Policy 2.2.1(e)(2)c to exempt Parcels 06038-025-000 and 06038-026-000 from entering into a developer’s agreement with the County prior to final development plan approval.
The proposed language, if approved, would add additional parcel numbers as part of the Springhills Transit Oriented Development (TOD). It would also allow two of those new parcels (located along 39th Avenue north of the Publix Shopping Center) to be developed prior to initiation of an agreement between the developers and the County for certain transportation improvements.
