The Jacksonville City Council approved a rezoning of 1.77 acres located at 0 Atlantic Boulevard North, between Abess Road Extension and Marketplace Drive, from Planned Unit Development (PUD) 2018-701-E to a new PUD allowing for outdoor storage of new vehicles. The amendment applies to a parcel within the broader Atlantic North commercial development and supports Jenkins Auto Group’s use of the lot for vehicle overflow inventory. The rezoning retains all previous PUD-permitted commercial uses and adds the specific allowance for vehicle inventory storage on a non-contiguous site. The site plan includes perimeter fencing, monument signage, and internal access via Marketplace Drive. Landscaping and utility services will conform to zoning and JEA standards. The development aligns with Jacksonville’s 2045 Comprehensive Plan and fulfills a use demand not covered under the original PUD. All development will be privately maintained, and no recreation or open space is provided.
This rezoning facilitates expanded commercial automotive operations in a growing corridor, supporting business needs while preserving design and land use compatibility with surrounding development.
