Background:
Alternative Fuel Sales Florida Statute 377.707 preempts local governments from requiring a fuel retailer to invest in a particular fueling infrastructure. The proposed changes to the Unified Land Development Code will remove the current requirement to provide specific fueling infrastructure in a Traditional Neighborhood Development or Transit Oriented Development.
Home-Based Businesses Florida Statute 559.955 requires changes to our existing Unified Land Development Code to comply with the requirements of the law. These changes primarily consist of not treating any home-based business differently than a similarly situated home without a business.
Distribution Electric Substation The Unified Land Development Code standards for substation development review, per special exception, does not comply with Florida Statute section 163.3208 related specifically to “Distribution Electric Substations”. The proposed changes would be to conform with the requirements of the law.
Parcel Disaggregation proposes a Unified Land Development Code amendment to prevent the disaggregation/piecemeal development and would create standards to master plan commonly owned adjacent property.
