summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
The City is the Applicant to change the underlying land use on a 46.4 acre area within the Pompano Airpark, which includes and surrounds the Runway Protection Zone for Runway end 15 of Runway 15-33. The site is proposed for amendment from Open Space Recreation (OR) on the City’s land use map and Parks and Recreation on the County’s land use map to Transportation (T) on both maps. The subject parcel is south and adjacent to Copans Road and east and adjacent to NE 5th Avenue and makes up the northwest corner of the Pompano Airpark property.
The Air Park was granted to the City in 1947/48 under the 1944 Surplus Property Act. That conveyance requires that aviation be the primary use of the facility and no other uses on the property are allowed to significantly constrain airport operations. Development of parcel Parcel Y, just north of the Goodyear Blimp Base, was recently completed so the City is moving forward with removing the barriers from the next phase of development parcels consistent with the FAA approved Airpark Master Plan Map. This triggers the need to correct the land use designation on the subject properties at the northwest end of Runway 15-33 and remove the environmental designations on all the wooded areas adjacent to Runway 15-33, some of which already have an underlying land use of Transportation. The City is concurrently processing a separate Application to amend the Environmentally Sensitive Lands Map. The Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval of this amendment on January 22, 2025.
