Sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority, adopt an ordinance approving Case No. CW 19-01, a proposal by Pinellas County to amend the Countywide Plan map from Residential Low Medium to Public/Semi-Public, regarding 2.9 acres more or less, located at 2897 Belcher Road, Dunedin.
• The subject property is part of a larger 9.59-acre parcel that is home to the Clearwater Community Church.
• The northern 6.69 acres of the church property have an existing future land use designation of Public/Semi-Public but the southern 2.9 acres have an existing future land use designation of Residential Low Medium.
• The purpose of the amendment is to provide for a consistent land use designation across the entirety of the church property.
• The amendment area contains four small buildings that are used for church-related functions (i.e., offices, single family home, etc.) and there are no plans to further develop the property at this time.
• Forward Pinellas and the Planners Advisory Committee each voted unanimously to recommend approval of this proposal.
