PZ-02-16:  APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE LANDSCAPING AND ZONING CODES TO ADD VERBIAGE FOR “ENCROACHING ON PROPERTY OF OTHERS”                     

Body

 

BACKGROUND: The proposed ordinance amends Chapter 23-Landscaping, Article 1 - In General, Section 23-12 - Maintenance of Landscaping, and amends Appendix A Zoning, Article XL Section 40.9 - Landscape Maintenance Requirements. The intent is to clarify landscaping maintenance requirements pertinent to landscaping that encroaches onto the property of others.

 

City Commission directed staff to review the Code as the result of feedback received from residents. This item went before the Development Review Committee on January 26, 2016 and its comments are reflected in the attached meeting minutes.  Staff’s recommendation is also attached.
