Staff Presentation: Development Services Manager Randy Woodruff gave an overview of Ordinance 16- 1447, explaining that the proposed ordinance would amend language in the City Unified Land Development Regulations (ULDR) relative to group homes should it be adopted. He advised that group homes and foster care facilities were regulated by the Unified Land Development Regulations Chapter 11 Section 2-7.19 and on the state level by Florida Statutes Chapter 419. He stated that the amendments were necessary as the City's Code had been found to be outdated as a result of changes relating to group homes which were made during the 2016 legislative session. The proposed amendments include the following changes: Amendment to Table 2-5.3 Land Use by District to allow Community Residential Homes (CRH) 7-14 residents as a permitted use within the PRD (Planned Residential Development), PMX-L (Planned Mixed -Use: Low Intensity/Medium Density Residential), PMX-MID (Planned Mixed -Use: Medium Rise) and PMX-HIGH (Planned Mixed- Use: High -Rise)
