Summary of the decision
SE-03-05-029 — Progress Energy Florida, Inc.
Request: Special Exception in R-1 (single family-5,000 sq. ft. lots) zone for public utility (electrical substation).
Decision: Approved
Hearing: The Staff Report and Recommendation is located on Pages _____ Two neighboring property owners to the west in the Sundance at the Econ Subdivision addressed the BZA on this application. One resident opposed the request based on aesthetics, inconvenience due to construction activity, and health issues (electromagnetic frequency emissions). The Progress Energy representative explained the emissions from the proposed substation will be less than that carried in the transmission lines that have existed in the area for several decades. The other property owner spoke in favor with the one request that the applicant install a brick wall finish that will aesthetically compliment Sundance's entry wall.
