Summary:
The Development Services Department has prepared a text amendment to Chapter 155, which amends the "Modified use standards" within the Atlantic Overlay District (AOD). The Atlantic Boulevard Overlay district (AOD) is established and intended to serve as a center of activity for residents and visitors alike, a source of pride and identity for the community, and an attractive gateway to the city's beachfront areas. The purpose of this overlay is to stimulate economic revitalization, create a pedestrian-friendly environment, encourage beachfront beautification, and promote mixed-use development.
In order to achieve these goals, the AOD has a list of principal uses that are permitted within the AOD regardless of the underlining zoning district in section 155.3703.C.Modified Use Standards. Aligned with the objectives of the AOD, the proposed text amendment adds "Museums" and "Other Indoor Commercial or Membership Recreation/Entertainment Uses" to the list of permitted uses within the AOD. The addition of these uses to the modified permitted uses list of the AOD will help continue the economic growth of this area, and the establishment of the district as a destination, whether the uses are stand alone, or incorporated into a mixed-use project.
