summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
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 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 underlying 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.
This item was heard at the March 26, 2025 Planning and Zoning Board Meeting. At this meeting, the Board provided a recommendation of approval of the text amendment.
