Jul 11, 2024

Palm Bay, FL - The Palm Bay Planning & Zoning Board will convene on July 16, 2024, at 6 PM in the City Council Chambers at 120 Malabar Rd. SE, to review various development proposals and provide recommendations to the City Council.

Please note: Several items on the original July agenda have been continued to the August meeting. This information is also included on the full meeting agenda.

Here's a closer look at each agenda item:

Variance Requests:

V24-00003 - Odyssey Preparatory Academy: This proposed charter school, located at the southwest corner of Emerson Drive NW and Glencove Avenue NW, seeks permission to reduce the rear parking setback by 9.5 feet. This would allow for a larger play field to meet National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) standards. Residents living near the school and those interested in educational facilities may wish to attend this meeting to learn more about the potential impact on the neighborhood.
V24-00004 - Odyssey Preparatory Academy: Odyssey Preparatory Academy also seeks a height variance to build a 30-foot structure, exceeding the current limit of 25 feet. The school argues that this extra height is necessary to optimize natural light and create a modern learning environment. Neighbors and those concerned about building heights in the area may want to attend the meeting to weigh in on this request.

Preliminary Subdivision Plans:

PS24-00001 – Chaparral P.U.D. Phases 4A & B and 5A & B: This preliminary plan proposes to develop a significant residential subdivision with 522 lots, located south of Malabar Road SW, in the vicinity south of Abilene Drive SW. Residents in the area and those interested in future residential development should attend the meeting to learn about the potential impact on traffic, infrastructure, and the surrounding neighborhoods.

Final Subdivision Plans:

FS23-00016 – Chaparral P.U.D. Phase 4A: This final plat request focuses on a 167-lot residential subdivision within the Chaparral P.U.D., located south of Malabar Road SW. This phase will proceed as planned under the preliminary plat. Residents in the area should attend if they have concerns or questions about the specific details of this phase.
