DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

Thomas Grimes, owner of the subject property and applicant, has filed an application for a Special Use Permit (SUP) to allow for the parking of one (1) commercial vehicle (Semi-Truck) with a weight greater than 16,000 pounds on a property with a zoning of General Agriculture (A-1).  An aerial photograph showing the general location of the subject property was provided. The Parcel Identification Number associated with the property is 46072-001-08, and the street address is 14612 SE 80th Ave, Summerfield, FL, 34491. The legal description is displayed in the deed included in the application. The subject property is a 3.24-acre parcel located within the Secondary Springs Protection Zone (S-SPOZ) and outside of the Urban Growth Boundary. The applicant is applying for a special use permit that would allow the parking of one truck and one trailer when the truck is not in use. Currently, the truck stays on the road for weeks at a time and returns home between assignments. Staff is recommending approval because the requested use is compatible with the surrounding area, it will not adversely affect the public interest, and it is consistent with the Marion County Comprehensive Plan.
