6 ORDINANCE#2013-007
ARTICLE 309. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.
Sec.309-10. Complete street improvements.
(A) Intent.
(1) Public pedestrian circulation is one of the most important aspects of a successful
redevelopment area. This article is intended to ensure that optimal public pedestrian
corridors are provided along all roadways to assure unobstructed, safe and convenient
pedestrian access to and between adjacent buildings.
(2) Build-to-lines within the CC, SFED-MU, EDBB-MU and NBHD-MU districts,
are designed to place buildings at or near the back edge of wide sidewalks. The street
sections approved by the city commission in the CRA Redevelopment Plan within these
mixed-use districts are designed to include additional dedications for sidewalks and
street landscaping.
(3) On-street parking is a necessary component of a complete urban street, as it
increases pedestrian safety and comfort by buffering pedestrians from street traffic and
effectively reducing vehicle speed. On-street parking also reduces the need for off-
street parking,which is a significant cost factor for urban redevelopment.
(B) Dedication required. A sidewalk and landscaping easement or special purpose
right-of-way, as determined by the city, shall be dedicated for the area between the
property line abutting each street and the planned street line pursuant to the street
sections approved by the city commission in the CRA Redevelopment Plan, in order to
complete the public sidewalk. The dedication shall be required for property with at
least 200 feet of street frontage or four (4) contiguousplatted lots, whichever is less,
prior to the issuance of any building permit for work cumulatively valued in excess of
twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) within any calendar using either the current RS
Means or Marshall & Swift construction cost data publications. Along Federal
Highway, in lieu of this requirement, right-of-way dedications are required in the
amount necessary to complete the 46-foot half-section on each side of the centerline
pursuant to the Broward County Trafficways Plan. The conceptual section for US-1
will provide for the desired sidewalk width within the right-of-way required by the
Broward County Trafficways Plan.

Section 7. That Article 635 "Site Plans" of the City of Dania Beach Land
Development Code is amended as follows:

procedure if the site plan complies with the following limitations:
(1) A net land area of one (1) acre or less; and
(2) Fewer than fifty (50) dwelling units, excluding duplex; or
(3) Fewer than twenty thousand (20,000) square feet of nonresidential use; and
(4) Does not include both residential and nonresidential uses; and
