City Council - Jul 28, 2026
The city annexed 1.29 acres on Grissom Parkway and set it on an industrial path — land use changed to Industrial and zoning to M-2 — supporting the city's industrial tax base.
City Council - Jul 14, 2026
A 1.29-acre parcel next to the recently annexed 46 acres is being brought into the city and rezoned for industrial use — needed for a stormwater plan on a planned industrial complex with no tenant named yet. Council approved both first readings but put the annexation vote off to July 28.
City Council - Jun 9, 2026
Three separate Grissom Parkway land-use items were on the docket: a comp plan amendment (postponed), an M-2 zoning text amendment allowing large-scale recreation centers and gyms at 3095 Grissom Parkway, and a 1.29-acre annexation postponed to July 14. These could shape what gets built along the corridor.
City Council - May 26, 2026
A 1.16-acre parcel east of Grissom Parkway moves toward joining the city for a planned industrial warehouse complex, and a zoning change now allows large indoor recreation facilities like the raceway at 3095 Grissom Parkway in industrial districts.

City Council - Apr 14, 2026
Park Industrial LLC wants to annex 45 acres of unincorporated land east of Grissom Parkway and build a warehouse and manufacturing complex. It passed first reading easily, but access hinges on an old county right-of-way that still needs to be sorted out.
Planning & Zoning Board / Local Planning Agency - Apr 1, 2026
Nearly 45 acres off Grissom Parkway could become an industrial complex with warehouses, manufacturing, and outdoor storage if annexed into Cocoa. The board backed both the land use and zoning changes, saying it fits the area's industrial character and boosts the tax base; a buffer wall will be required next to nearby homes.
City Council - Feb 10, 2026
The city was slated to hold a public hearing on annexing roughly 47 acres near Canaveral Groves Boulevard, though a postponement to February 24 was requested. Annexation brings the land into city limits, affecting services, taxes, and future development potential.
