Vilano Beach Town Center History,Vilano Beach Town Center History And Current Contact Information. Vilano Beach Was Founded And Platted In 1927 And Encompasses The Length Of Vilano Road,From Ocean To River,And Surrounding Lots And Side Streets. In 1999 As A Result Of The Vision Of Local Volunteer Residents This Approximately 23 Acres Was Established As The Vilano Beach Town Center. Here Is How This Sea Change For Vilano Beach Was Accomplished. Nearly Three Decades Ago,In 1995,The Alignment Of The New Vilano (usina) Bridge Made Vilano Beach A Destination Instead Of A Drive-thru A1a Beach. After That Major Change,The Goal Of Our Local Residents And Businesses Became To Redevelop Ourselves As A Small Beach Town -- A Walkable/Bikeable Commercial/Residential District,Including A Grocery/Pharmacy Where People Would Want To Live,Work And Play. Since Vilano Beach Is Not An Incorporated Town,We Embraced The Town Center Concept Because It Provides The Look And Feel Of A Small Town -- Without An Extra Layer Of Government Or Additional Taxes. Also,When We Decided To Re-develop As A Town Center,The Fact That This Concept Had Already Been Adopted In The Florida Growth Management Act Of 1985 Made Achieving Our Goal Of Becoming A "small Beach Town" Possible. To Accomplish This Goal,Local Volunteer Residents And Business Owners In Cooperation With Our Local Commissioner And The County Planning Department Staff Met And Worked Together In Four Committees (open To The Public) For Two Years,1998 And 1999,At The North Shore Improvement Assoc. Building To Do The Planning With County Staff And Make Recommendations On Design,A New Land Use Code And Zoning For Mixed Use That In 1999 Resulted In St. Johns County Designating The Vilano Beach Commercial District A Town Center. With That Designation,Several Of The Volunteer Resident Committee Members And Several Local Property Owners Continued The Next Three Years (1999-2002 And Beyond) To Represent Vilano At Thousands Of Hours Of County Meetings To Implement The Town Center. Creating The Vilano Beach Town Center Land Development Code And Mixed Use Town Center Zoning (which Includes Both Residential And Commercial Uses),Overlay Design Guidelines,And The Vilano Beach Of Community Redevelopment Agency (cra) For Infrastructure Which Were Adopted By The St. Johns County Commission. Opportunities For Public Input And Involvement Have Continued Thru The Years Because The County Commission Established An Appointed Vilano Town Center Design Review Board Made Up Of Local Residents And Business Owners With Four-year Terms To Advise The County Commission As The Town Center Has Redeveloped Over The Years. This Board,As Well As Permits For New Development In The Vilano Town Center Are Managed By The Sjc Growth Management Department (planning And Zoning). Contact Number (904-209-0675).
