Manatee County Planning Commission Agenda Results: 7/11/2013

BRADENTON -- At Thursday's Manatee Planning Commission meeting, commissioners recommended site plan approvals for 487 assorted resident dwellings at University Groves, and 133 single-detached units at University Groves West. They also recommended approval for amending a General Development Plan to exchange 239 single-family units for 339 multi-family units. But what got the most attention was the only vote that wasn't unanimous, a rezone in east county from A (General Ag), to PDC (Planned Development Commercial) for retail uses.
