Request by Corey W. O’Gorman of PLACE Planning and Design, on behalf of Adopt-a-Family of the Palm Beaches, LLC, for a Major Site Plan, PZB Project Number 18-00500006: a Conditional Use Permit and PZB Project Number 18-01500005: a Variance, to approve construction of a 14-unit townhouse project with a community center to be located at the southwest corner of 3rd Avenue North and North “A” Street, within the Low Density Multi-family (MF-20) zoning district.

Site Characteristics.


The site was previously developed with a single-family home and a four-unit apartment building. These structures were demolished in 2017 and the site prepared for this project. In addition, although there were some trees preserved during demolition, they were destroyed during Hurricane Irma thus leaving a very limited amount of vegetation on the site. The property has frontage on both North A Street and Third Avenue North, with sidewalks along the entire length and utilities either on the property or in adjacent right-of-way.
