This ordinance amends the previously approved Belfort Station DRI to remove 2.93 acres of land located along the southern boundary of the DRI. The land use category for the parcel will change from Business Park (BP) to High Density Residential (HDR), facilitating the development of approximately 160 high-density residential units. The amendment is consistent with the 2045 Comprehensive Plan and the City’s Land Development Regulations, supporting urban infill development within the Urban Priority Area.
The removal of this parcel from the DRI supports Jacksonville’s goals for urban infill development and increased housing density in the Urban Priority Area. This change encourages efficient land use and supports the city’s growing residential needs while maintaining consistency with broader development plans for the region.
