Summary Explanation/Background
Chapter 2022-122, Laws of Florida (SB 706), requires The School Board of Broward County ("School Board") to notify the County that capacity is available for residential development within thirty (30) days after receipt of a developer's legally binding commitment to provide mitigation proportionate to the demand for public school facilities to be created by actual development of the property. The proposed Ordinance implements this legislation by amending Section 5-182.9 of the Broward County Code of Ordinances ("Code") to vest developments for purposes of school concurrency where the County has received such notification from the School Board that capacity is available for the development.
The December 13, 2022, Motion to Direct authorized amendments to implement Chapter 2022-144, Laws of Florida (SB 758), and Chapter 2022-176, Laws of Florida (SB 962), that did not result in any further changes to the Code. Upon further review, staff has concluded that no amendments to the Code are required related to said legislation.
