Summary:
The Applicant Landowner is requesting a Major Temporary Permit from the provisions of Chapter 155: Article 4 [Use Standards] and Article 5 [Development Standards] of the City of Pompano Beach Zoning Code in order to temporarily utilize two adjacent parcels for a temporary sales center and parking without complying with the applicable use and development standards as required by Code.
The subject property is located on the west side of A1A (N Ocean Boulevard), between SE 12th Street and SE 13th Street.
PROPERTY INFORMATION
1. The subject property consists of a vacant undeveloped lot, where the sales center trailer is proposed, along with an existing parking lot to the south. The sales center will be used to showcase a forthcoming 27-story, 92-unit residential development at 1350 S Ocean Boulevard, which was approved via Major Site Plan PZ #15-12000002.
2. Vehicular access to the sales center will be provided through the aforementioned existing parking lot to the south, which has ingress/egress along S Ocean Boulevard.
