LPA recommends cleanup amendments to floodplain and building code language
Lee County staff presented a package of cleanup amendments to Chapter 6 of the Land Development Code on Dec. 8 that remove redundant or procedural language, align the code with the Florida Building Code and FEMA requirements, and update outdated departmental titles.

Anthony Rodriguez, zoning staff, described the changes as a ‘‘relatively simple cleanup type amendment,’’ intended to reduce duplication and confusion where code sections differ slightly. Rodriguez said the amendments update statutory references and the titles used in the code to reflect organizational changes in the Department of Community Development.

LPA members expressed support for removing redundancies. A motion to recommend approval of the Chapter 6 amendments was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The recommendation will be forwarded to the BOCC for public hearing and final action.

The LPA record contains no detailed fiscal analysis for the cleanup package; staff characterized the changes as technical and aimed at clarity and compliance.
