Recommended Action

Sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority, adopt an ordinance approving Case No. CW 21-09, a proposal by the City of Tarpon Springs to amend the Countywide Plan Map from Employment to Retail and Services, regarding 0.61 acre more or less, located at 41680 U.S. Highway 19 North, Tarpon Springs.

 

                     The subject property is located on the southwest corner of U.S. Highway 19 North and East Pine Street.

                     There is currently a developed building and parking lot on the property, which was most recently used as a furniture store, but is now closed.

                     The property has historically been utilized for retail commercial purposes.

                     The requested amendment is to reflect the historical use and to allow continued use of the property for retail commercial purposes.

                     The Planners Advisory Committee was unable to meet due to Tropical Storm Elsa and, therefore, did not formulate a recommendation on this case.

                     The Forward Pinellas Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of this proposal.
