ORDINANCE
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH
MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATED TO THE PLANNING BOARD BY AMENDING SECTION 20-
6.1 (B)(1)(b) OF THE SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE IN ORDER TO
PROVIDE FOR STAGGERED APPOINTMENT TERMS FOR PLANNING BOARD
MEMBERS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY, ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT, AND
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE
BACKGROUND
The attached resolution (No. 54 -05- 12033) was adopted by the City Commission at its April 19,
2005 meeting. The proposal submitted by the Mayor would change the appointment terms of
Planning Board members. The Land Development Code currently specifies that Planning Board
members shall serve a term of two years. It is proposed that this section of the LDC be amended
to provide that Board members be appointed on staggered terms. Previous regulations in the
Land Development Code provided that four (4) Planning Board members shall be appointed for
a term of one year and three (3) members shall be appointed for a term of two years, and all
successor members shall be appointed for two year terms.
Currently the appointment or re- appointment of all seven members at one time every two years
can be a difficult process. The long term continuity and effectiveness of the Planning Board
would benefit from having overlapping appointment terms. The initial step to make this change
is for the Planning Board to conduct a public hearing and provide a recommendation to the City
Commission.
PROPOSED AMENDMENT
The specific amendment is as follows:
(B) Planning Board.
(1) Establishment and Membership.
(a) There is hereby created a local planning agency to be known as the South
Miami Planning Board.
(b) The board shall be comprised of seven (7) members who reside in the
city.
