Body
BACKGROUND:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Mr. Jeff Popick has submitted a conditional use permit to construct an RV garage in conjunction with a new single-family home at 1960 San Marco Road, Marco Island. The proposed RV garage will be 14 feet high and is incorporated with the overall design of the residential structure. Please find attached the application and plans.
PLANNING BOARD SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Board held a public hearing and considered this request at their July 12, 2024 meeting. The request was presented to the Planning Board and after minimal discussion, the Planning Board voted 4-0 to forward a recommendation of approval with the below findings and conditions:
FINDINGS:
1. The proposed addition will meet the requirements of the City’s Land Development Code (“LDC”), will not adversely affect the public.
2. The Goals section of the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Element calls for “Enhance[ment]…” of Marco Island’s “…tropical small town and resort character…” which can be considered to be served by providing the homeowner the ability to store a large vehicle, outside of the view of the neighbors, while retaining the existing aesthetics of the area. The Comprehensive Plan and LDC seeks to reduce visual clutter from having large vehicles parked in the driveway, or within view of the wider community and the City Council has allowed for a process to request these larger doors to accommodate citizens’ RVs.
3. The site plan design provides access off Sunset Street and not the well-traveled San Marco Road.
4. The RV garage has been designed to integrate with the principal structure and other homes in the neighborhood.
5. The proposed RV garage is designed and oriented appropriately for the single-family district.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
1. The proposed recreation vehicle garage must comply with the dimensional standards for RSF-3 district and not exceed 14 feet in height.
2. The parking, storage and use of the recreation vehicle shall conform to the City of Marco Island Land Development Code regulations pertaining to recreational vehicles [Sec. 30-1007(b)].
