The Daytona Beach City Commission on Dec. 17 approved several ordinances and resolutions spanning land‑use changes, state grants and city purchases.
On second reading the commission adopted multiple amendments to the Land Development Code and comprehensive plan: an amended definition of "social services" and related code edits (ordinance 9a), procedures for certified recovery residences to comply with Florida Senate Bill 954 and section 397.487 (ordinance 9b), and a small‑scale comprehensive plan amendment for property on George W. Ingram Boulevard (ordinance 9c). The commission also amended Historic Preservation Board membership rules and residency provisions (ordinance 9d).
The commission approved a rezoning and planned development agreement for property on LPGA Boulevard (ordinance 9e) after commissioners amended the motion to add a type d, option 2 buffer and a PVC fence and to incorporate revised PD language from a Dec. 16 memo.
Financial and capital actions included a local agency program agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation to reimburse up to $8,587,507 for construction inspection of the Beach Street Complete Street retrofit; the commission authorized replacement vehicles and equipment for utilities at a total of $847,395.47; and it authorized a grant application and acceptance of $500,000 from the Daytona Beach Racing and Recreational Facilities District for Breakers Oceanfront Park playground with a city cash match of $492,255.68.
A sale and purchase resolution authorizing acquisition of 543 Oak Street from Batt Development LLC for $305,000 (plus closing costs) was read into the record and advanced after public comment raised concerns about appraisal disparities. Commissioners recorded motions and votes on the consent agenda and individual items consistent with procedural requirements.
Several measures passed with unanimous votes; where amendments were made on the dais, staff were directed to incorporate the revised language into the final documents.
