The Vero Beach City Council voted 4-1 on Wednesday to approve the conceptual site plan for the development of the former ‘Crusty’s site’ near Humiston Park in Vero Beach Florida. The proposal includes money to expand the current 49-space parking lot in the southeast section of the park farther west to add 23 spaces.

Flamevine Properties I LLC proposes to build 3,487 square feet of retail space, 12 residential units and a 2,872-square-foot restaurant at the site of the former Crusty’s restaurant, which sits next to Corey’s Pharmacy, another Vero Beach landmark.

Part of the project calls for the city to abandon the north half of Flamevine Lane, although it will still be kept open for public access to the beach. While most of the overflow crowd at Wednesday morning’s meeting appeared to be in favor of the alternative proposed by Fromang, there were some people who did not want any intrusion into the green area of the park or the abandonment of the Flamevine Lane right-of-way.
