(SECOND READING)(PUBLIC HEARING)
body
BACKGROUND:
This item was approved on First Reading at the January 9, 2020, City Commission Meeting.
Chapter 2, “Administration,” Article V, “Boards, Commissions and Committees,” of the City’s Code of Ordinances provides general requirements and procedures which are applicable to all of the City’s boards. In addition, there is a separate Division in Chapter 2 for each Board individually, which addresses more specific information including membership and functions. Finally, Chapter 13, Land Development Code, addresses specific provisions for the Planning and Zoning Board.
The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the attached ordinance on July 10, 2019, and recommended approval. As originally presented to the Board, the ordinance addressed revisions to board functions, membership, and meeting schedule requirements for the various City boards. The City Commission subsequently reviewed the ordinance at a workshop and asked that the code be revised to, first, revise the general membership requirements to include residents and business owners, excluding non-residents who were real property owners; and second, provide individual board membership criteria specific to the purpose and duties of each board. As a result, the ordinance went back before the Planning and Zoning Board for consideration of these additional changes at their December 11, 2019, meeting, and the Board recommended approval of the revised ordinance.
DISCUSSION:
The attached ordinance incorporates the provisions of the original ordinance but also includes the additional changes discussed above and recommended by the City Commission during the workshop.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this ordinance. On December 11, 2019, the Planning and Zoning Board considered the proposed ordinance and recommended approval.
FISCAL IMPACT: N/A
