Prior Board Motions:
On 2/23/21 the BoCC voted (5-0) to transmit CPA-01-21 to the Department of Economic Opportunity and other reviewing agencies. The transmitted amendment included staff's recommended language and a revised Policy 1.9.1(a), FLUE, related to the provision of affordable housing within Celebration Pointe.
The BoCC also requested that staff work with the applicant on issues that could better be addressed by amending the ULDC. These were signage, block coverage requirements, setbacks for off-street parking, temporary parking and tree mitigation. Staff presented these issues for further discussion at the 3/23 BoCC meeting.
In 2018, CPA-08-17, establishing Objective 1.9 in the Future Land Use Element relating to policies affecting the Celebration Pointe TOD and the Celebration Pointe Mixed Use land use category, was approved by the BoCC.
