STAFF POSITION vs CODE REQUIREMENTS
Xey Legal Prtnciple: A rezoning approval requlres atlirmative lindings ol compliance with all applicable standards. A vote
'to approvo implies that each ol the abov€ code requirements has boen salislied.
The Land Development Code and Comprehensive Plan evaluate
lntenslty ol use, including tratfic, noise, occupancy, and aclivity
levels - not just unit count (Snyder).
"Amenities (pool, dog park, clubhouse) are not density increases."
Crmpliance must prec€de entitlement. Unpermitted work must be
correctgd under exisling zoning. Rezoning cannol be used to
legalize violations (F.S. Ch. 553; LDC enforc€ment principles).
"Rezonang is needed so the applicant can come inlo compliance."
All required parking must be provided on-site. Spillover into
residential neighborhoods violales Chapter 28 parking
requirements and creales safety concerns.
"Parking impacls are manageabl€.'
Stormwater must be retained on-site with no adverse otf-site
impact at time of approval (F,S. Ch.373t localdrainage
standards). Existing floodang indicates noncompliance.
'Drainage issues can be addressed laler.'
Code requires sustained compliance. Short-torm correc{ions
immedialely belore hearings do not establish long-term
operational rosponsibility.
"Recent cleanup shows the property is now in compliance.'
Use must compty vrith zoning. Ongoing short{erm rental aclivity in
a non-permitted district is a malerial compliance issue relevant to
eligibility for rezoning.
'Vacation renlal activity is not relevant to Iezoning.'
There is no vested right in violations. Permits and compliance
musl bo obtaaned before additional development rights are
granted.
"Unpermitted improvements can be resolved after approval."
Compatibility slandards require prolection of adjacent residential
uses. lncreased ameniti€s increase frequency, duration, and
intensity of noise and activity.
"Noise and activity impacts are minimal."
STAFF POSITION / ABGUfiilENT CODE BEOUIBEMENT / LEGAL STANDARD
FORMAL MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
TO: Mayor Joyce L. Davis, Vice Mayor, and Cily Commissioners
FROM: Concerned Residents - Griffin Boad Corridor
DATE: March 2026
RE: Opposition to Bezoning Application RZ-O34-24
I.INTRODUCTION
This memorandum is submitted in opposition to the requested rezoning of 4880 sw 28 Ave and 4901
SW 27 Terrace to PRD-1 .
II. LEGAL STANDARD
Under Florida case law including Board ol County Commissioners v. Snyder and City ol Deerfield
Beach v. Vaillant, rezoning decisions must be supported by competent substantial evidence and must
be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code.
III. STORMWATER NONCOMPLIANCE
Failure to retain stormwater on-site in accordance with Florida Statutes Chapter 373 and local drainage
standards is a violation and indicates the sile is not operating within required standards.
IV. PARKING DEFICIENCIES
Overflow and illegal parking indicate failure to meet required parking standards under Chapter 28 of the
Land Development Code.
V. IMP R OP ER SEOUEIVC'A'G
Compliance must precede entitlement. Unpermitted improvements cannot be legalized through
rezoning under Florida Statutes Chapter 553.
VI. AMENITY ABGUMENT RESPONSE
The addition of amenities such as a pool, dog park, and clubhouse still increases intensity ot use,
tratfic, noise, and inrrastructure demand and must be evaluated as increased impact.
vil. coNcLustoN
The application fails to meet the required standards and should be denied.
Respectfully submitted,
Concerned Residents - Gritlin Road Corridor
