Sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority, adopt an ordinance approving Case No. CW 22-05, a proposal by Pinellas County to amend the Countywide Plan Map from Residential Low Medium to Residential Medium regarding 0.71 acres more or less, located at 5173 28th Street North and 2786 and 2782 52nd Avenue North.
• The amendment area is located near the southeast corner of the intersection of 52nd Avenue North and 28th Street North in the Lealman Community Redevelopment Area and consists of three currently vacant parcels.
• The amendment area is adjacent to a variety of residential uses, including an 18-unit apartment complex to the east, mobile home parks to the south and west, and single-family homes to the north across 52nd Avenue North.
• The applicant intends to develop the site for residential use at a higher density than allowed by the current land use designation, hence the proposed amendment to Residential Medium.
• The current Residential Low Medium category would allow up to 8 units. If approved, this amendment to Residential Medium would allow up to 11 dwelling units on the property, or up to 16 dwelling units if an affordable housing density bonus is pursued.
• The Lealman Community Redevelopment Area Advisory Committee was briefed on the proposal at their December 15, 2021 meeting.
• Forward Pinellas and the Planners Advisory Committee each unanimously recommended approval of the proposal.
