The presentation provides detailed information about the existing building conditions within the proposed rezoning area.

  • 80% of properties (8 out of 10) in the rezoning area are currently non-complying with existing zoning
  • 4 properties are built to a floor area ratio (FAR) greater than what R6B allows
  • After rezoning, 100% of properties would either comply or come closer to complying with zoning regulations
  • This information supports the argument that the rezoning would bring most properties into compliance

And to add a note, the existing floor area ratios of the 10 properties located within the rezoning area.
1:47:36
Most of them, if not all of them.
1:47:37
I think 8 of them, 80% are currently non complying.
1:47:41
So they're already all overbuilt 4 of them are actually built to a Florida ratio of greater than an r 6 b.
1:47:47
So prior to the rezoning, call it 80% of the existing properties do not comply with zoning.
1:47:53
After the rezoning, a full 100% would either comply.
1:47:58
Or in the case of those properties built closer to a 2.4 to 2.5 f a r would come closer to complying.
