FROM: LO, ASSIST ANT PLANNING DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: MEETING OF NOVEMBER 2, 2004
CONSIDERATION OF A CITY-INITIATED AMENDMENT TO APPENDIX "A"
OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS (LDRS) REGARDING THE
DEFINITION OF "SIGN".
J BACKGROUND I
At its meeting of June 22, 2004, the City Commission approved an amendment to the Land
Development Regulations, which updated the City's sign regulations. On August 17, 2004,
the City Commission approved an amendment to the Land Development Regulations to
establish regulations regarding ground signs. The proposed text amendment is to provide a
more accurate and precise definition of sign.
Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(M)(5), approval of an LDR amendment must be based upon a
finding that the amendment is consistent with and furthers the Goals, Objectives, and Policies
of the Comprehensive Plan. As noted previously, this amendment is being initiated more for
clarification than to fulfill any specific Comprehensive Plan policy. While the amendment does
not specifically further the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan, it is
not inconsistent with them.
I PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION I
The Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing regarding this item at its meeting of
October 18, 2004. There was no public testimony in opposition to the proposed text
amendment. After discussing the amendment, the Board voted 6-0 (Krall absent) to
recommend to the City Commission approval of the proposed amendment to Appendix "A" of
the Land Development Regulations regarding the definition of "Sign", by adopting the findings
of fact and law contained in the staff report and finding that the request is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and meets criteria set forth in Section 2.4.5(M) of the Land
Development Regulations.
I RECOMMENDED ACTION I
By motion, move to approve the amendment to Appendix "A" of the Land Development
Regulations regarding the definition of "Sign", by adopting the findings of fact and law
contained in the staff report and finding that the request is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan and meets criteria set forth in Section 2.4.5(M) of the Land Development Regulations,
with second reading to occur on November 16,2004.
