explanation
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STAFF MEMORANDUM

This proposed rezoning from PS (Public services and operations district) and MH (12 units/acre mobile home residential district) to ED (Educational services district) is for the University of Florida Eastside Campus. This approximately 14.3-acre, developed property is on the west side of Waldo Road and is south of Northeast 23rd Avenue. To the south of the UF Eastside Campus are a residential neighborhood, and an electrical contracting business. To the north is a vacant, 2.6-acre property (now owned by the university and proposed for an expansion of the Eastside Campus) that was previously part of the mobile home park to its north, and Northeast 23rd Avenue. To the east and across Waldo Road is the State of Florida's Tacachale residential facility for the developmentally disabled. To the west are a self-storage facility and business center, a small non-residential building of unknown use, and a very small, vacant parcel.

The UF Eastside Campus is within the Eastside Community Redevelopment Area, but it is not within either the Enterprise Zone or a special area plan. This property is part of the 2005-2015 Campus Master Plan and is subject to the provisions of the 2005-2015 Campus Development Agreement.
