Lee County Hearing Examiner Quasi Judicial Hearing
The hearing concerned a rezoning request for the Crown Bridge Estate, specifically to rezone 34.49 acres from residential RS3 to a residential planned development. The proposal allows for a maximum of 86 dwelling units on 56 lots, with the option to convert 30 lots into duplexes. Key discussions focused on compliance with land development codes, the potential buildability of a former gopher tortoise preserve lot following relocation efforts, and traffic impact assessments. The applicant and staff addressed previous infrastructure certifications and agreed on minor adjustments to permit conditions, with the staff recommending approval.
