Title
An Ordinance Of The City Of Hollywood, Florida, Amending Article 4 Entitled “Schedule Of District, Use And Setback Regulations” By Amending Sections 4.1 And 4.2 To Clarify The Suitability Of Non-Conforming Lots; Amending Section 4.22 To Include Additional Standards Relating To Temporary Trailers And Similar Structures; Amending Section 4.3. To Provide For Additional Standards Relating To Carports; Providing For A Repealer Provision And A Severability Clause. (18-T-51)
Body
Staff Recommends: Approval of the Attached Ordinance.
Explanation:
Staff proposes a text amendment to various sections within Article 4 to clarify the suitability of non-conforming lots; to remove duplicate parking requirement language; and to provide additional standards for carports and temporary trailers and similar structures. The proposed amendments were crafted to keep the Code relevant with current trends, provide clarity on issues that have recently arose, and remove and collapse duplicate requirements. As uses and development trends begin to evolve, the City must amend the regulations from time to time to be forward-thinking and consistent with changing times. Each proposed text amendment seeks to either clarify existing regulations, remove duplicate regulations, or revise the code in a manner that is consistent with current development patterns. Furthermore, the proposed text amendment allows greater administrative ability with regard to variances and other requests that the Board has customarily granted or found to be minor in nature.
