Rezoning HDR to PO/B for 5-story group care facility

About this project

The application would rezone parcel K8-10A5A-5 from High Density Residential to Planned Office/Business so a five-story group care facility, focused on senior care, can be built. The change would reduce parking and traffic compared with high-density housing. The site is in a mapped FEMA floodplain, though the current proposal avoids the 100-year floodplain.

County recommendation: Supports, with comments

Issues raised: Build ground floors above floodplain elevation, Adjacent areas remain at elevated flood risk, Residents may need medical support during floods
