Title
ORDINANCE NO. 16-17 ADOPTING A NEW OFFICIAL ZONING MAP PURSUANT TO SECTION 4.1.2 OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS (SECOND READING)
Body
Recommended Action:
Recommendation
Motion to Approve Ordinance No. 16-17, as presented on second reading.
Body
Background:
Section 4.1.2 of the Land Development Regulations requires the City to maintain an official copy of the zoning map ("Official Map"). This Official Map is to be held in the City Clerk's office as the official record. The last Official Map update was in 2012. Since that time, there have been several rezonings and one annexation. All adopted changes to date have been included in this map.
The proposed ordinance adopts the Official Map and also amends the process by which a new Official Map shall be adopted by allowing such adoption via resolution rather than by Ordinance. This in no way impacts the process by which rezonings are adopted by the City. This proposed ordinance does not rezone any properties, but merely memorializes the current map as the New Official Zoning Map.
In addition, the previous map was prepared and maintained in AutoCAD. This new map was prepared and will be maintained utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS).

Timing of Request:
This is a City-initiated amendment to adopt an Official Zoning Map that includes all adopted amendments to date. Once approved, the map will be signed and kept in the City Clerk's office and all other maps in City Hall and other City facilities and on the City website will be updated accordingly. The Official Zoning Map will be updated periodically.
