TO:City of New Port Richey City Council
FROM:Dale Hall, AICP, Community & Development Director
DATE:3/4/2025
RE:First Reading, Ordinance No. 2025-2321: Rezoning of 5422 Charles Street from Office to MF-10

REQUEST:

The request is for City Council to conduct a first reading of an ordinance to rezone the property located at 5422 Charles Street from Office to MF-10 so that the applicant may construct a single-family detached dwelling on the property.



DISCUSSION:

The subject property was platted as a part of the Tampa Tarpon Springs Land Company subdivision in 1911 and the land is currently undeveloped. The zoning on the property is Office which does not allow for the construction of the single-family dwelling. Therefore, the owner is requesting the zoning change which is more compatible with the surrounding single-family detached dwellings and duplex dwellings. 

The Land Development Review Board reviewed the request and recommended approval on February 20, 2025.

The attached ordinance is in draft form and will be revised prior to the second hearing date.

 



RECOMMENDATION:

Staff requests that the City Council consider tabling the Rezoning of 5422 Charles Street from Office District to Multifamily Low Medium Density (MF-10) District to a date specific.  This is due to an error in the presentation by Staff and the final motion by the Board at the LDRB hearing on February 20, 2025.  This postponement will allow for Staff to address this matter without the requirement to readvertise the legal notice.



BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the City budget.
