This ordinance approves a waiver for minimum road frontage requirements for the property at 5206 Seaboard Ave (RE # 103131-0000), owned by Groundfloor Jacksonville, LLC. The waiver reduces the required road frontage from 48 feet to 0 feet in the RLD-60 zoning district. This allows for the subdivision of the 0.34-acre lot to develop an additional single-family dwelling. The property has 85 feet of frontage on Seaboard Avenue, but access to a second dwelling behind the existing home will utilize an easement along Sue Lane, an unapproved private road. The Land Use and Zoning Committee and the City Council found that practical difficulties exist in meeting the strict regulation, the request is not solely cost-driven, the waiver will not diminish property values or alter the area's character, adequate vehicular access is provided via an easement, and the waiver will not be detrimental to public health, safety, or welfare. The ordinance was introduced by the Land Use and Zoning Committee and approved by the City Council with a vote of 18-0.

This decision allows for the subdivision of a property and the construction of a second home at 5206 Seaboard Ave, potentially increasing density in the area. Residents may experience temporary construction impacts.
