Atlantic Beach removes event-venue permitting language from development ordinance
Summary
The council unanimously approved Ordinance 24-04-02 to remove permitting requirements for event venues from the Unified Development Ordinance, noting the rules would be handled administratively or via a future Town Code amendment; Planning Board recommended approval.
Atlantic Beach Town Council voted unanimously on April 22 to adopt Ordinance 24-04-02, which removes permitting requirements for event venues from the Unified Development Ordinance and leaves those administrative permitting details to the town’s event application or a forthcoming Town Code amendment.
Councilmember Joey Dean moved to adopt the ordinance following a brief public hearing; Mayor Pro Tem Austin Waters seconded. The Planning Board had reviewed the amendment at its April 2 meeting and recommended approval; the council adopted the related consistency statement after the hearing. The motion passed 3-0.
Town staff indicated that earlier March amendments clarified where event venues are allowed and distinguished major from minor venues; this April amendment removes the permitting language from the ordinance text so permitting will be processed administratively. No public speakers addressed the item during the hearing.
