6. Public Hearing * COMPAMD 2024-03 Schneider Family Campground (Transmittal). Request for a Large-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the Future Land Use Map designation from Rural/Silviculture (R/S) to Rural Commercial (RC) for approximately 120 acres of land, specifically located at 8000 US Hwy 1 South. The Planning and Zoning Agency (PZA) heard this request at their regularly scheduled public hearing on November 21, 2024, and recommended approval with a vote of 6-1. One of the Agency members read into the record a letter from the South Anastasia Communities Association (SACA) in which it stated concerns about the potential intensive uses of the site and asked that the Agency recommend denial or offer a less intense alternative. The Agency members deliberated the potential for additional intensive uses of the site should the amendment be approved, emphasizing the necessity to restrict the allowable uses and expressing concerns regarding the implications of well and septic system additions. While some members acknowledged the beneficial aspects of utilizing the site in this manner, others raised questions about the current number of RV campgrounds in the vicinity and the appropriateness of the location for such use. The Agency further considered the advantages of introducing a text amendment to confine the use to RV Campgrounds and ancillary services. The applicant committed to providing use limitations within the Rezoning application that runs concurrent to the comprehensive plan amendment adoption. Public discussion included topics such as the existing wetlands on the property, the presence of small, private campgrounds in the area, competition with nearby Airbnb rentals, and the importance of retaining equestrian activities on-site.
