The Jacksonville City Council has approved an amendment to Section 656.399.7 of the Ordinance Code, modifying the San Marco Overlay Zone setback standards for the Alford Park Subdivision. This change updates setback regulations to align with historical development patterns and allows nonconforming structures built over 50 years ago to be reconstructed on their original footprint. The ordinance aims to preserve the subdivision’s architectural integrity while ensuring new development remains compatible with the existing neighborhood.
This amendment ensures that zoning regulations accommodate the historical layout of Alford Park, preserving the character of the San Marco neighborhood. It provides flexibility for homeowners with older structures while maintaining consistent development standards.
