At a legislative public hearing the Nassau County Board of County Commissioners voted 5–0 to transmit two comprehensive‑plan amendments to state review.
Tab L (CPA 25‑029) is a request to amend the future land use map for approximately 55.27 acres at the northeast corner of I‑95 and State Road 200 from commercial to Transect 4.5 within the Timber to Tides design overlay. Elizabeth Beck of the Planning Department told the board the parcel contains wetlands, a freestanding emergency room, and a mix of current zoning designations; staff recommended transmittal to state agencies and said rezoning and transportation matters would be addressed at the rezoning/site‑plan stage.
Commissioner Gray moved to approve transmittal of CPA 25‑029, the motion was seconded, and the clerk recorded a roll‑call vote of 5 ayes, 0 nays.
Tab M (CPA 25‑031) would remove an older policy from the future land‑use element (noted in the transcript as policy FL.11.08.a / FLUE 1.09/1.08) that originated from a voluntary applicant proffer tied to prior transportation concurrency rules. Beck said the removal is procedural in nature for now, with transportation and any FDOT concerns to be handled during rezoning and site‑plan review. Commissioner Gray moved to transmit CPA 25‑031; the motion passed 5–0.
Both items will now go to state agencies for review as required by the transmittal process; any subsequent rezoning requests and permit actions will return to the board as needed.
