Approvals on Flagler Avenue hotel null and void because adjoining property owners weren't formally noticed

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- The City Commission and Planning Board approvals for the building of a hotel on Flagler Avenue are null and void because adjoining property owners were not properly notified of public hearings for the planning portion, Interim City Manager Pam Brangaccio said today.

"It's a do-over," Brangaccio said, "like in the movie Groundhog Day."
