Summary Explanation/Background
THE RESILIENT ENVIRONMENT DEPARTMENT AND THE URBAN PLANNING DIVISION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION, subject to staff recommendations and conditions which will ensure compliance with the standards and requirements of Chapter 5, Article IX of the Broward County Code of Ordinances.
This item supports the Commission Goals of “Ensuring residents have an affordable place to live by offering sustainable, compatible, innovative, accessible, affordable housing options for all income levels, including integrated, permanent supportive housing and zoning that helps residents build equity.”
This plat is located on 94.2 acres on the east side of Blount Road/Northwest 30 Avenue, between Herb Culbreath Drive and Northwest 19 Street. The plat is restricted to 35.7 acres of industrial use (12.72 acres proposed, 23 acres existing) on Parcel A; 1,024-bed jail and 18.1 acres of jail support facilities to include ancillary uses such as but not restricted to kitchen facilities, administration and booking facilities, laundry facilities, and warehouse/storage facilities on Parcel B; 2,695-bed jail (161 proposed, 2,534 existing) on Parcel C; 2.09 acres of water management area (lake) on Parcel D; and 64,350 square feet of community facilities on Parcel E.
The applicant is requesting to amend the note on the face of the plat to add 138 mid-rise residential units by creating a new parcel (Parcel F) and deleting the commercial/retail restriction from the note language. The residential development includes seven “very-low-income” affordable units. Pursuant to Broward County Land Use Plan Policy 2.16.3 the City of Pompano Beach has allocated 19 bonus units per every one “very-low-income” unit.
