Summary Explanation/Background:
The Applicant, Michael Vonder Meulen of Keith & Associates on behalf of PPI, Inc., is requesting approval of a plat note amendment concerning the Pompano Racino Plat. The property is located south of SW 3rd Street, also known as "Racetrack Road" and east of South Powerline Road (also known as "South Pompano Parkway") north of the Isle Casino. This area has a land use designation of "RAC" (Regional Activity Center), which was approved by ordinance by the City Commission in 2011 (Ordinance 2011-25).

The applicant has requested to amend the plat note to the add the following: "714,605 square feet of commercial recreation use; 501,350 square feet of office use; 464,478 square feet of commercial use, 550 mid-rise units, and 250 garden apartments."
The proposal is consistent with the entitlements approved with the land use plan. The current zoning for this property does not allow all of the uses without rezoning. A rezoning will be required before some of the uses can be built. Staff has no objection to the proposed plat note amendments.
