This model ordinance is provided for adoption, in whole or in part, into the local land development code. Florida’s local governments represent a range of size, character, and unique local situations. Thus, local governments should modify standards or procedures for consistency with local conditions and practice. Text in parentheses and italics is intended to be replaced with appropriate local terminology, such as the name of the jurisdiction, citations of plan policies, and so forth. The model ordinance begins with general provisions and then provides the user with two options – the first option is intended for system wide application and the second option is a corridor protection overlay district. The system wide option includes numbered sections for consistency of proposed development with the long-range transportation map, right-of-way dedication, right-of-way preservation, and right-of-way acquisition. These are followed by an alternative option for designation of a corridor protection overlay district. Although a numbering system is provided here for the purposes of the model, the user should use a numbering system and format consistent with the local land development code, or other local land development regulations. +Read more
