Board of Adjustment - June 17, 2026

The Escambia County Board of Adjustment convened on June 17, 2026, to consider a variance request related to property at 8810 Jernigan Road. The request involved allowing a pool in the front yard and an associated eight-foot vinyl privacy fence, which deviated from the county's land development code that restricts accessory structures and fences in front yards. Staff presented findings supporting the variance due to unique site conditions, including the property's orientation, elevation, and preservation of mature trees, which created hardships for standard placement of accessory structures. The board unanimously approved the variance request. No other procurement or budget-related matters were discussed during the meeting.
