Staff Recommends: Presentation by Broward County Commissioner Steve Geller.
Explanation:
Broward County Commissioner Steve Geller will present information on a new Broward County land use plan opportunity which enables the addition of residential uses on commercial property without the need for a County land use change. This opportunity applies to commercial property along major roadways which, as transit-oriented development, is recognized as better for the environment, encouraging mass transit, walkability, bicycling and more. After adopting an enacting ordinance, participating cities will be eligible to receive incentives offered by Broward County, including project financial assistance and extra points toward transportation surtax projects.
The presentation will be made by Broward County Commissioner Steve Geller, District 5.
The presentation will be made at the April 6, 2022, City Commission meeting.
