Sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority, adopt an ordinance approving Case No. CW 19-05, a proposal by Pinellas County to amend the Countywide Plan Map from Residential Low Medium to Retail and Services, regarding 0.4 acre more or less, located at 1408 North Betty Lane, Clearwater.
• The property contains an automobile repair facility which is planned to continue to operate for the foreseeable future.
• The surrounding uses are primarily a mix of commercial and residential uses.
• The owner has no immediate plans to redevelop the property, but would like the option to establish other commercial uses in the future.
