COMMISSION MEMORANDUM

TO:
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM:
Commissioner Alex Fernandez
DATE:
July 23, 2025
TITLE:
REFERRAL TO LAND USE AND SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE – DISCUSS AMENDING THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS TO ALLOW FOR ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW OF TEMPORARY SURFACE PARKING LOTS.

RECOMMENDATION

Please place the above item on the City Commission meeting agenda as a referral to the Land Use and Sustainability Committee (β€œLUSC”).

Currently, the placement of a temporary surface parking lot on a property in a historic district requires the review and approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness by the Historic Preservation Board (β€œHPB”).

In light of the significant demand for parking in the City’s historic districts, I would like the LUSC to discuss amending the Land Development Regulations to allow for administrative review and approval of parking lots in historic districts on a temporary basis, subject to conditions. Eligibility should be limited to vacant properties.
