Summary:
The City of Orlando, in a joint application with Orlando City Soccer requests Planned Development approval for a new 19,000-seat Major League Soccer stadium.
The +/- 10.5-acre subject property is bound on the north, west, and south by Central Blvd., Glenn Ln., and Church St. It extends over Parramore Ave. and a portion of Pine St.; the City has requested approval of an abandonment of those right-of-way segments. (City Council is scheduled to consider the separate abandonment ordinance at today's meeting).
In addition to the PD and Abandonment requests, this project seeks a Future Land Use map amendment to assign the Public-Recreational-Institutional designation onto the entire property, through a separate ordinance to be considered today.
The Municipal Planning Board recommended approval of the PD request at its December 16, 2014 meeting. City Council approved this ordinance on first reading on January 26, 2015.
