The Jacksonville Planning Commission recommended approval (6-1) on 2024/09/25 for an ordinance to rezone approximately 12.51 acres across two parcels at 4210 Kernan Blvd S and 14690 Beach Blvd. The previous zoning designations of Commercial, Office, and Residential with various densities will be changed to Planned Unit Development (PUD). This rezoning facilitates a mixed-use project comprising up to 250 multifamily residential units and approximately 50,000 square feet of commercial space, alongside associated parking and open areas. Conditions for approval include traffic improvements, adherence to architectural design standards, and a commitment to designate a minimum of 15% of the residential units as affordable housing for two decades. One commissioner raised concerns regarding potential traffic impacts on Kernan Blvd S. The project's estimated cost is $75 million.
