Recommended Action
Sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority, adopt an ordinance approving Case No. CW 22-10, a proposal by the City of Largo to amend the Countywide Plan Map from Residential Low Medium, Residential Medium, Retail and Services and Activity Center to Recreation/Open Space and Activity Center, regarding 7.07 acres more or less, located at 375 Seminole Boulevard.
• The amendment area is located on Seminole Boulevard, south of West Bay Drive and seeks to expand the passive and active features of the existing Bayhead Park. In order to do so, the City of Largo is requesting the amendment of 11 parcels, nine of which are amending to Recreation/Open Space, while the two remaining parcels will be unchanged from their Activity Center designation.
• The Activity Center portion of this proposed amendment is part of the West Bay Drive Community Redevelopment District. While this is an Activity Center designation, the underlying uses of these parcels are recreation/open space uses. Therefore, these parcels will remain unchanged from their current category, and will contribute to creating a unified area of recreation/open space uses as part of the Bayhead Park expansion.
• Forward Pinellas and the Planners Advisory Committee each unanimously recommended approval of the proposal.
