summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
At the February 24, 2021 Planning and Zoning Board meeting Chair Fred Stacer began a discussion related to the City’s interest in beautifying the Dixie Hwy Corridor. Following the city’s investment in the roadway itself through the GO Bond program, Mr. Stacer provided that the expectation of quality design from new development should increase. These discussions kicked off an initiative that evolved into an Economic Development Council (EDC) led Dixie Highway Task Force. This task force adopted the goal of encouraging mixed-income and mixed-use development along the corridor. Opportunities such as the Broward County
affordable housing incentive policies (Policies 2.16.3 and 2.16.4) and the City’s Mixed-Income Housing Policy (Resolution 2022-46) became critical to the approach of the Task Force. The result of this initiative is a recommended text amendment to the City’s Code of Ordinances to incentivize quality designed mixed-use, mixed-income developments along applicable corridors. The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the proposed text amendment at the January 26, 2022 meeting and unanimously recommended approval. The backup contains the current Broward County Affordable Housing Incentive Policies, the City’s approved Mixed-Income Housing Policy, and finally the proposed Commercial Corridors and Mixed-Use Redevelopment Text Amendments.
