FROM: ~ASMIN ALLEN, PLANNER
SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1995
AMENDMENT TO LDR SECTION 2.4.2(B)(1) REGARDING
NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTAIN LAND
DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is approval of an amendment to
LDR Section 2.4.2(B)(1) relative to notice requirements for certain land
development applications.
BACKGROUND:
The 1995 Legislative session amended notice requirements for certain land use
items. Since the notice requirements within the LDRs were tailored after those
contained within the Florida Statutes, the LDRs are no longer consistent with the
new statute requirements.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board considered this item at its meeting of September
18, 1995. There was no public testimony on the item. The Board voted
unanimously to recommend approval of the amendment.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, approve the amendment the Section 2.4.2(B)(1) notice
requirements as provided in the attached ordinance.

MEETING OF: SEPTEMBER 18, 1995
AGENDA ITEM: V.J. AMENDMENT TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT
REGULATIONS SECTION 2.4.2 (B)(I) REGARDING
NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTAIN LAND
DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS
ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD:
The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City
Commission regarding amendments to the LDR's Sections 2.4.2(B)(1) (b), (c),
(d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) notice requirements for certain land development
applications and creating a new subsection, notice requirements for use changes
within zoning districts.
BACKGROUND
With the adoption of the LDR's in 1990, the notice requirements for amendments
to the Comprehensive Plan and Rezonings were tailored after those contained in
Florida Statutes Sections 166.041 and 163.3184.
In the 1995 legislative session, the notice requirements were amended for
rezonings, amendments to the comprehensive plan initiated by the municipality,
and changes to the permitted (principal), conditional or prohibited uses within a
zoning category. The LDRs are no longer consistent with current statute
requirements.
ANALYSIS
Under the former statute, the amount of land being rezoned determined the
type of notice required. Formerly, the notice requirements depended upon
whether the municipality was rezoning more or less than 5% of its land area.
Under the new law, the line is drawn at "10 or more contiguous acres". If the
amount of land being rezoned contains less than 10 contiguous acres, then
individual notices should be sent to the individual property owners. If the
ordinance will either change the permitted, conditional, or prohibited uses or
Planning and Zoning Board Memorandum Staff Report
Amendment to the Land Development Regulations Section 2.4.2(B), Notice Requirements
Page 2
change the zoning map designation on parcels involving 10 contiguous acres or
more, then notice is provided by published advertisements.
With respect to changes in the permitted, conditional or prohibited uses, the
notice requirements were not addressed by the LDRs. For the adoption of such
ordinances the procedures contained in the statutes were followed. The former
law only required compliance for ordinances which substantially changed the
permitted use categories in zoning districts. Under the new law any ordinance
initiated by the municipality which alters the permitted, conditionally or prohibited
use must now comply with the stated notice procedures.
Changes to the notice requirements regarding conditional uses and variances
are solely housekeeping matters, eliminating references to the rezoning
procedures and specifying the required procedures for those individual items.
Rather than repeat the notification requirements that are contained within the
Florida Statutes, the proposed amendment will simply refer to those existing
requirements. Therefore, if the statutes are amended in the future, the LDR's will
automatically be consistent with the amended provisions.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion recommend to the City Commission adoption of the LDR amendments
to Section 2.4.2(B)(1)(b), (c), (d) (e) (0 (g) and (h) and enact a new subsection
regarding use changes as follows:
(B) Public Hearing Requirements: The following notice requirements
and hearing procedures shall be complied with whenever an action before a
Board requires consideration at a public hearing. These requirements are in
addition to any requirements for public hearing notice which are otherwise
required by State Law or City Commission procedures.
(1) Notice: All public hearings shall be noticed through letters to
property owners, legal advertisements, or display advertisements as set forth
below.
