proposed to be conducted within the City comply with the City’s Code of Ordinances, including the Land Development Code, the Florida Building Code, the Florida Fire Prevention Code, and Broward County Local Amendments to the Florida Fire Prevention Code; and (2) protect the city's residents from the harmful effects of illegal business operations by establishing a certificate of use

(B) Certificate of Use required. Before any use of land, building, or structure is established, or any established use of land, building, or structure is changed to a different use than that identified
in the previously issued certificate of use which applies to the property, the person seeking to
establish the use must obtain a certificate of use from the community development department. Community development department personnel shall develop an administrative procedure and related forms for issuance of certificates of use, and are authorized to conduct inspections of the subject land, building, or structure prior to approval of a certificate of use in order to confirm
compliance with this code. Failure to secure a certificate of use before establishing a use of land,
building, or structure, or before changing the usage of the property from the use recognized in a duly-issued certificate of use to another use, shall be a violation of this code and punishable as such.
(C) Term of Certificate of Use
a. A certificate of use shall be valid for no more than six (6) months.
b. If a business that has been issued a certificate of use is moved from one location to another properly zoned location in this city, or if the business is transferred to a new owner, a new certificate of use shall be required.
c. No new certificate of use shall be issued until required parking for the new
location has been confirmed and the business is found to comply with the
provisions herein.
d. If any person operates any business at more than one location, each location shall be considered a separate business; and a separate certificate of use, therefore, is required.
(D) Application for Certificate of Use
a. It shall be the duty of any person conducting business to file an application with the city for a certificate of use and obtain an approved certificate of use prior to operation of the business.
b. An application shall be filed on a standard application form supplied by the
Community Development Department and shall be submitted in a manner
determined by the city, all applicable fees paid before processing.
c. The Community Development Department or designee will verify compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
d. Ground for denial: The director of the Community Development Department or
designee, as appropriate, shall have the authority to deny an application for a
certificate of use on the following grounds:
1. The applicant has failed to disclose or has misrepresented any material fact or any information required by this article in the application.
2. The applicant desiring to engage in the business, profession, or
occupation, as described in the application, has selected a proposed site
or type of business activity that does not comply with the City's Land Development Code.
4 ORDINANCE #2026-004
