[Renumbered by Amd. Ord. 17-06 4/4/06]; [Amd. Ord. 68-04 1/4/05]

(A)

General. With the adoption of the City's Comprehensive Plan Amendment 99-1, Housing Element Policy A-12.4 was modified to state the City will provide planning and technical assistance to implement neighborhood-supported initiatives aimed at preserving the character of existing residential areas. Such assistance may involve the formulation of regulations that would limit the size and scale of new homes to be consistent with existing structures within a defined neighborhood, and analysis of the housing inventory to determine if the area qualifies for designation as a historic district, and similar measures. In accordance with this policy, the Beach Property Owners Design Manual was prepared for the single family zoned properties, east of the Intracoastal Waterway, and was adopted by the City Commission on January 4, 2005. This section is created to adopt and implement the provision of the North Beach and Seagate Neighborhoods Design Manual. All development within the North Beach/Seagate and Ocean District Neighborhood Overlay District, as defined in Section (B) below, shall take place according to the provisions of the manual adopted herein and shall follow the standards for visual compatibility provided within the guidelines including regulations limiting height, width, mass, scale, materials, color, style, form and square footage. The Beach Property Owners Design Manual is included as an exhibit hereto. [Amd. Ord. 36-07 9/18/07]; [Amd. Ord. 68-04 1/4/05]
