The developer of Plantation Oaks has requested a new major amendment for the project, received by city staff last week, according to an email by city Planning Director Steven Spraker.
The amendment consists of the deletion of a middle school site as well as the 18-hole public golf course, which would have also housed a restaurant and a shop. The amendment application details that the developer, Parker Mynchenberg, seeks to add 80 single-family lots to the first phase of the project. In the third phase of the project, Mynchenberg seeks for the age restriction be removed as well as the addition of 86 single-family lots. The fourth phase of the project would require a rezoning of the 53.41-acre school site to house 125 single-family lots.
In January, the Ormond Beach City Commission unanimously approved three amendments to the Plantation Oaks development order, which allowed the first phase of the project to consist of single-family homes, and, not have an age-restriction for residents.
The new amendments will need to be reviewed by the city’s Site Plan Review Committee, and Mynchenberg will need to hold a neighborhood meeting before the item is reviewed by the Planning Board and commission. The dates for these meetings are not yet set.
Food trucks will now be allowed to operate at events held at residential clubhouses or community centers, per a unanimous vote by the Ormond Beach City Commission at its meeting on Sept. 22.
The trucks will need a special event permit, and are allowed to obtain one for a maximum of 12 days per year.
