summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
The “BrowardNext” planning process culminated with the adoption of the 2017 Broward County Land Use Plan which became effective in June, 2017. The new Broward County Land Use Plan includes several changes to the “flexibility” standards used by the County and the City. This flexibility is still intended to allow some variation in residential densities and in permitted uses in Nonresidential and Residential land use categories to facilitate redevelopment without requiring a lengthy Comprehensive Plan amendment process. The proposed changes to Chapter 154: Planning are either details that were not included in the previous version of Chapter 154 or are new or revised regulations that were adopted as part of the BrowardNext planning process. The one amendment included in this ordinance that is not related to BrowardNext is the addition of an in lieu of fee contribution option to meet the affordable housing requirements in Chapter 154. These amendments were unanimously approved by the P&Z Board on August 23, 2017. The P&Z approval memo will be provided as soon as it is available. The minutes of the P&Z meeting for this item are included in the attachments.
