Board of Adjustment and Appeals Hearing 8-5-26

The Pinellas County Board of Adjustment and Appeals convened on August 5, 2026, to consider a type two use request for the construction of five single-family detached homes on a vacant one-acre parcel zoned for multifamily residential use at 186 Hidden Brook Drive, Palm Harbor. The applicant, representing the new ownership group Yokesi LLC, sought approval to develop five detached homes on individual lots, which complies with the maximum density allowed under the residential low land use designation. Staff recommended conditional approval contingent on site plan review, permits, and fees. The board discussed issues including stormwater management, private road maintenance responsibilities, and fencing for privacy. No public opposition was present. The board unanimously approved the request, incorporating the applicant’s commitment to install a six-foot high white PVC fence and to establish maintenance agreements for the private road. The meeting concluded with approval of prior meeting minutes and adjournment.
