City seeks RFQ to recodify decades-old land-development regulations
Summary
Staff proposed a request for qualifications to comprehensively recodify Madeira Beach's land-development code (last recodified in 1983), with an expected consultant timeline of six to eight months for the initial consolidation; more substantive changes would be developed through public workshops.
Community development staff said the city code is fragmented and in need of comprehensive consolidation and updating; they proposed issuing an RFQ to hire a consultant to recodify the land-development regulations and remove internal conflicts. Staff said the initial consultant phase would focus on organizing and removing conflicts (estimated six to eight months) and that substantive changes (height, density, policy-level items) would be addressed later with public workshops.
Commissioners supported proceeding and staff said they would look for grant funding opportunities and present a phased outreach plan; staff noted they already maintain an Excel workbook tracking existing changes to assist the consultant.
