Planning board recommends rezoning for mixed‑use project at 6000 N. Andrews Ave.
Summary
The Fort Lauderdale Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval of a rezoning to allow a mixed‑use development at 6000 North Andrews Avenue (case UDP z 23006). The recommendation was based on staff findings and will move forward through the city process.
The Fort Lauderdale Planning and Zoning Board on Wednesday recommended approval of a rezoning for a 5.1‑acre site at 6000 North Andrews Avenue to allow a mixed‑use development.
Mike Herrera, an urban planner serving as the case planner for UDP z 23006, told the board the city would process the rezoning applications on behalf of the applicant and described the request as a rezoning of 225,706 square feet (5.1 acres) from General Business (B‑2) to Uptown Urban Village Southeast (UUV South) to permit a mixed‑use project on the site.
The board received no public comments on the item. A board member moved to recommend approval “based on the findings of fact in the city staff report and the testimony heard,” and the motion passed unanimously in an 8‑0 roll call vote.
The board’s recommendation cites the Unified Land Development Regulations (ULDR) criteria referenced in the staff report. The city staff report and the testimony at the hearing formed the basis for the board’s finding that the application met the applicable ULDR criteria.
Action recorded: the board made a motion to recommend approval of case UDP z 23006; the motion was seconded and carried by an 8‑0 vote (Donaldson — yes; McCartney — yes; Scott — yes; McTigue — yes; Barranca — yes; Shechtman — yes; Chair Wainwright — yes; Steve Gannon — yes). The item will proceed through the city’s rezoning process.
