Tuesday’s GPICA Meeting to Focus on Development
Meeting will also Include Public Information Session on Proposed Zoning Changes to Matlacha Property
Islanders are invited to attend the next meeting of the Greater Pine Island Civic Association to learn an update on current development projects being planned in the community and attend a Public Information Session on a rezoning request for 4100 Pine Island Road NW.
Owner Stephen Soloway, Coastal Table LLC, is asking to rezone the lot from residential-multi-family to commercial. He’s seeking to build a beach-access restaurant on an adjacent parcel with light retail sales and does not currently have the required parking spaces. This rezoning would help Coastal Table begin the development process for the restaurant.
During the meeting, GPICA Board Members will also provide updates on current zoning and development applications on the Island. This will be the first of a new monthly update that will be given during each GPICA meeting. The Board is also seeking several computer-literate GPICA members interested in helping track zoning cases to join the development committee to help the community stay abreast of development plans on the island. Please attend the meeting for more details and information and to learn more about the development committee.
