- In other business, the Village Attorney said the Village received a Request for Relief under the Florida Land Use and Environmental Dispute Act (FLUEDRA) from the owner of the 200 Yacht Club Drive property. The property owner is challenging the Village Council’s rejection of the property owner’s appeal of the Planning Commission’s denial of its site plan and appearance review application with waivers. FLUEDRA is a non-binding mediation proceeding overseen and directed by a special magistrate. The Village and the property owner are in the process of choosing that magistrate. If a hearing is scheduled, it will be open to the public and notice will be sent out.
