My apologies for the delay. I am an owner at Park North and I volunteer for the Board. In recent weeks, I’ve been incredibly busy and I haven’t had a chance to keep up with the Park North blog. I volunteer to write the blog to help every stay informed about what is happening at Park North.
800 N Orange Ave Development Update
It seems as if we’ve made great stride with the development at the adjacent lot once labeled Future Park. The developer, Ustler Development, is now requesting a 45ft set back from the building. This is considerably bigger than the original 3ft proposed set back. From what I understand from our Park North lawyer this is a terrific outcome for Park North. The land adjacent to Park North is zoned commercial and was purchased for commercial use. I have attached a link to the plan for you to see the proposed building. The new proposed building will not have a parking garage and will not require an easement off our land! We will not lose any guest parking spaces nor will we have to deal with the extra congestion of people coming in and out of the building through our guest parking area. The new development will be accessible off Orange Ave. The 45ft offset will be for those condos that are facing downtown. The other condos that are facing 801 N Orange building (on the side of the fenced lot- bordering to the parking garage) will only be set back a couple of feet. The building will be right against the guest parking lot line.
Check out the proposed building rendering
Starting next month, you will need to use a guest parking pass to park in our guest lot. Please note that if you or a guest do not have your tag visible in your window then you’re car/truck will be towed at your expense. There is nothing worse than getting towed and having to pay for it! Please be mindful of this. The goal is not to punish our owners as we do not get any revenue from the tow truck company. The goal is to keep people that have no right to park there out of our spaces such as the law firm next door and the restaurant guests at 801 N Orange. I have heard the valet guys directing people to park in our lot. Our spaces are only for Park North owners and their guests.
Get Involved!
I implore all of you to get involved and attend our Board meetings generally scheduled the last Thursday of the month. Unfortunately, I probably will be out of town next Thursday and will not be able to attend. I look forward to meeting all of you.
Thanks, Renee
