Where is the 'missing middle' housing issue in Jacksonville?

  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Jacksonville Business Edition podcast, Kent Justice interviews Ric Anderson from the Jacksonville Daily Record about the “missing middle” housing issue in Jacksonville. Anderson explains that this term refers to housing options like duplexes and triplexes, which fall between single-family homes and large apartment complexes. These options cater to those who cannot afford single-family homes but prefer alternatives to high-density apartments. The discussion highlights efforts to address this issue, including Councilman Rory Diamond’s proposed legislation to create a zoning overlay for missing middle housing within the Interstate 295 beltway. A citizens' committee has also been studying the issue, aiming to make Jacksonville more resilient to environmental challenges and reduce urban sprawl. The legislation would not apply to deed-restricted properties or areas governed by homeowners associations. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
