The City Planning and Zoning Boards consist of five (5) members who shall be residents of the City. The Planning Board is also referred to as the Local Planning Agency (LPA). Members are appointed by the City Council for three (3) year terms and may be reappointed for additional terms by the Council. Financial disclosure is required annually to Council on Ethics, State of Florida. This Board acts in an advisory capacity through recommendations to the City Council for final action.

The Planning and Zoning Board meets on a monthly basis and meetings are held in the Council Chambers located in City Hall. Notice of all meetings is provided to the members and posted on the bulletin board at City Hall at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the meeting and is subject to Section 286.011 Florida Statutes, (Public Meeting Law).

A major responsibility of the Planning Board is the management and update of the City Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Regulations. The Planning Board also functions in the dual role as the Zoning Board for the City and shall have the duties and responsibilities as set forth in the Land Use Regulations and the City Code. Most common among the Zoning Board’s duties is to review and consider citizen requests for zoning and land use changes, special exceptions or variances to certain land use regulations and subdivision of property within the City.

This board does not operate under a separate budget. The City Director of Growth Management provides administrative support.

Please note members of the Planning and Zoning Board serve dual roles and also serve in the capacity of the Board of Adjustment. The Board of Adjustment meets on an as needed basis.
