Sanibel Planning Staff Recommends Not Objecting To Doc Ford’s Conditional Approval.
The Sanibel Planning Commission’s public hearing regarding the proposed Doc Ford’s new location is taking a brief break before opening the floor for public comment and questions.
Earlier, representatives of Doc Ford’s stated that the lease in the current location is not being renewed, requiring Doc Ford’s to relocate to a new location.
James Jordan, City Of Sanibel Planning Director, stated that the planning staff does not object to the request for conditional approval of the Doc Ford’s location, in essence recommending the Planning Commission’s conditional approval, subject to specific conditions regarding sound proofing, and several other conditions.
Holly Milbrandt, Sanibel Natural Resources Director, also stated she is generally supportive of conditional approval.
Update: The meeting eventually reconvened, and after a total of more than six hours of public discussion, the planning commission unanimously voted to recommend conditional approval of the new Doc Ford’s location to the Sanibel City Council.
