A public hearing for the Avalon Park development in Daytona Beach will be held on May 20 as the Daytona Beach City Commission prepares to review the project.
The commission will be reviewing a massive rezoning application for the project as well as a request to annex a 27-acre property into the Avalon Park development, owned by Avalon Park Daytona, LLC. The parcel will be limited to 80 residential units and just over 479,000 square feet of commercial space.
The Avalon Planned development project is a 2,760-acre project between North Timber Creek Road, south of West Granada Boulevard and west of Interstate 95. That massive development will have 8,818 residential units built out across all phases, and 1 million square feet of commercial space.
The Avalon Park development will be added to Zone 4 in the Daytona Beach City Commission, currently represented by Stacy Cantu.
Cantu pointed out in the May 6 commission meeting that the buildout of Avalon Park will be a 20-25-year process that will be built in phases.
“What they are doing is — the 8,818 homes, instead of coming back for each phase, they want us to approve all the phases at once,” Cantu said. “But they cannot start the next phase unless all the infrastructure is in place.”
The Avalon Park development will put around $125 million of infrastructure, including road improvements, into the area, Cantu said.
Daytona Beach Planning Director Dennis Mrozek said the developer could install all its infrastructure at once, if it wanted to, and then build out the project, but they have to have the infrastructure in place to move to the next phase.
“The first phase would include extending Timber Creek from where Margaritaville is, where that terminus is, up to Avalon Park Boulevard,” Mrozek said. “Then Avalon Park Boulevard will continue up to State Road 40 to Granada. So that first phase will include a connection up to State Road 40.”
“A lot of my residents are looking forward to that over at Margaritaville," Cantu said.
As part of the rezoning request, the developer is asking for several waivers, including smaller lots, reducing the required distances between homes and civic centers, bars, distilleries and other businesses in the mixed-use area, and modifications for on-street parking.
Cantu also said Avalon Park, as part of the agreement, will be giving land for a police substation, for a fire department substation and for a school if a school is needed in the area.
The development is currently involved in a federal lawsuit with the City of Ormond Beach over utilities.
The 27-acre annexation and the rezoning for the entire Avalon Park development will be viewed next on May 20, with ability for public comment and with final action by the Daytona Beach Commission.
