Deltona Planning and Zoning Board Meeting – July 16, 2025

The Planning and Zoning Board of Deltona, Florida, met on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, at 6:01 PM in the Deltona Commission Chambers and adjourned at 6:49 PM. The board considered a minor conditional use for a tattoo shop, approved prior meeting minutes, and discussed potential code amendments related to ADA accessibility.

Consent Calendar

  • Minutes of June 18, 2025 – Approved unanimously as presented (motion by Lori Warnicke, seconded by Ron Gonzalez).
  • Minutes of June 23, 2025 – Approved unanimously as presented (motion by Lori Warnicke, seconded by Ron Gonzalez).

Public Comments & Testimony

  • Brianna Pierson (131 Matanzas Road, DeBary, FL; business owner/operator for 5 years) spoke in favor of the tattoo shop at 1701 Doyle Road. She emphasized her commitment to community values, catering to women, and bringing clients from across the country to boost the local economy.
  • Hodges Linda (1690 Panama Ct., Deltona, FL) expressed opposition, raising concerns about the shop's proximity to food preparation areas, potential increased traffic, noise, and unwanted public access through the alleyway.

Discussion Items

  • Resolution No. 2025-69 – Minor Conditional Use for Tattoo Shop at 1701 Doyle Road Planning Manager Matthew West presented the application, noting the property is a 15,000 sq ft lot with a 3,200 sq ft building (built 1982) zoned C1 (retail commercial). The tattoo shop would occupy Suite A in a strip center. Staff recommended approval with conditions: no neon signs visible from exterior, operating hours 10 AM–10 PM, and a 12-month window to open. Applicant Brianna Pierson requested operating hours start at 9 AM instead of 10 AM. The board discussed signage restrictions (neon signs), hours, and landscaping. The property owner, Robby Ball (755 St Road), stated landscaping could be updated within 3–4 months after budgeting. Staff clarified that the alleyway will not be open to public access and that separate walls separate the tattoo shop from the adjacent pizza shop. The board voted to eliminate the neon sign restriction, set hours 9 AM–10 PM, and require landscaping per Section 110-808 of the City Development Code.
  • ADA Accessibility Discussion Member Northey raised concerns about ADA compliance at older buildings, citing a recent injury at a Save A Lot. She noted that many jurisdictions (e.g., Broward and Miami-Dade) require 20% of construction costs for ADA upgrades when a change of use occurs. Discussion included whether external changes trigger review versus internal changes. Chair Cardo suggested the board evaluate the city's code for similar thresholds.
  • State Legislation Update Member Northey requested a workshop on Senate Bill 180 and the Live Local Act, which limit local government regulations (e.g., after hurricanes). City Attorney Good explained SB 180's retroactive application to August 1, 2024, and its preemption of more restrictive local rules.

Key Outcomes

  • Approval of Resolution No. 2025-69 – Motion by Rachel Amoroso, seconded by Andrea Cardo, to grant the minor conditional use for a tattoo shop at 1701 Doyle Road with amended conditions: no neon sign restriction, operating hours 9 AM–10 PM daily, and landscaping meeting Section 110-808 requirements. Passed unanimously (6-0) with votes from Chair Cardo, Secretary Amoroso, Member Gonzalez, Member Northey, Alternate Neher, and Alternate Warnicke.
  • Motion on ADA Code Evaluation – Motion by Pat Northey, seconded by Ron Gonzalez, to request the City Commission direct staff to evaluate the city's code for ADA accessibility compliance mandates triggered by a certain threshold of renovation. Passed unanimously (6-0).
  • Staff Comments – Staff announced the resignation of Member Daniel Trojanowski; the position will be advertised for 60 days before appointment by the City Commission.
  • Board/Committee Members Comments – Discussion on financial disclosure (Form 1) with annual deadline July 1st; staff agreed to send reminders. Member Northey requested information on eligible education hours for board members; staff will distribute guidelines.
