Two recommendations are being made by City staff to the City Council for review:
Accept Ordinance 2581 at first reading and transmit to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity
Prior to the adoption hearing for Ordinance 2581, a master plan under Planned Unit Development zoning and a development agreement must demonstrate that each of the proposed Future Land Use Map amendments are compatible with surrounding and abutting residential uses through appropriate buffer and screen techniques, height restrictions, other applicable and appropriate performance standards, and management of compatible and complementary land uses allowed or prohibited within each “Neighborhood” zone.
The City Council meeting is open to the public.
