BACKGROUND:
Background
At the February 17, 2025 Regular City Commission Meeting, the City Commission voted to defer the approval of the Eloah Estates Final Plat pending negotiation of an agreement that would ensure the completion of the Enrico Ridge project - a related, but legal distinct entity and project. At the time of publication of this agenda, an agreement has not been fully negotiated. It is Staff’s intent to amend the agenda if an agreement is reached prior to the March 18, 2025 Regular City Commission Meeting. If there is no agreement in place at that time, Staff will request the City Commission to defer the item.
The Eloah Estates Final Plat encompasses approximately 45.3 acres of vacant land. It will feature 536 apartment units at 1000 Eloah Estates Drive, with access provided through a C-2 General Commercial property at 2982 Howland Boulevard. The application was initially submitted on March 25, 2024, and after four review cycles, both staff and the consultant have confirmed that the plat complies with Florida Statutes 177 and Chapter 106 of the City’s Land Development Code.
