in the amount of $265,000.00 for this project.

In accordance with Florida Statutes (F.S.) 380.093, The City of Deltona

Background:

must complete a Comprehensive Vulnerability Assessment to identify

all critical assets for Utility, Stormwater, Emergency Response and

Transportation. Conducting a Florida Department of Environmental

Protection (FDEP) vulnerability assessment offers significant benefits

to the City of Deltona by identifying areas at risk from climate-related

hazards such as sea level rise, storm surge, and flooding. This

assessment provides critical data and mapping tools that help the city

plan more resilient infrastructure, prioritize at-risk assets, and secure

state and federal funding for adaptation projects. By proactively

understanding its vulnerabilities, Deltona can better protect public

safety, maintain essential services, and support sustainable growth,

ensuring long-term community and environmental well-being. The City

of Deltona has been awarded a 100% funded Resilient Florida Grant

(Agreement No. 24PLN24) in the amount of $265,000.00 for

completion of this project.

If this is approved, Finance will include this as part of the 3rd Quarter

Budget amendment on August 4.

Request for approval of Resolution No. 2025-60 for legal representation in a

potential claim.

The City has received information that an action styled Robert Ellis v

City of Deltona has been filed in the 7th Judicial Circuit in and for

Volusia County. The City has not yet been served with the lawsuit, but

we anticipate that the City will be served with the litigation. In the event

that the City is served with the lawsuit, it is in the best interest of the City

to authorize representation through Tessitore Mari Scott and the City

Attorney, TG Law, PLLC, if the insurance carrier denies coverage.

Quasi-judicial Hearing - Ordinance No. 14-2025, amending Halifax Crossings

Mixed- Use Planned Unit Development (MPUD) for approximately 109.71 acres

of land located along the Halifax Crossings Boulevard corridor south and east

of the Halifax Hospital Complex within the Activity Center to include the

provisions of master development map alternatives and a reduction in the

minimum lot size for commercial parcels, at first reading.

The Halifax Village Planned Unit Development (PUD), located near

UF/Halifax Health in Deltona, was originally approved as a Business

Planned Unit Development (BPUD) in 2014 and later rezoned to a

Mixed-Use Planned Unit Development (MPUD) in 2022. In 2025, a

second amendment was proposed to further the project’s flexibility and

market viability. This amendment, tabled at the May 5, 2025, City

Commission meeting, is presented as Option B, which is a more

balanced and strategic for long-term development. Option B increases

commercial acreage to 75.71 acres - supporting job creation,

economic growth, and alignment with the city’s long term vision, while

reducing residential units from 1,125 to 575 and removing all age

restricted housing. It also introduces smaller commercial parcel sizes to

improve market responsiveness and attract a broader range of tenants.

While the applicant is entitled to proceed with option A, which includes

1,125 residential units and only 21.1 acres of commercial, Option B is

the more sustainable and economically beneficial option for the City.

Public Hearing - Resolution No. 2025-55, amending the Deltona Planning and

Zoning Board By-Laws.

Resolution No. 2025-55 proposes updates to the Planning and Zoning

Board By-Laws, originally adopted in 2011, to address operating and

legal needs that have emerged over time. The revisions aim to

modernize the Board’s structure and practices, align with the Land

Development Code (last amended in 2020), and improve

Background:

communication with City staff. Key changes include introducing term

limits, attendance enforcement, and alternate member procedures;

modifying officer election timing; updating meeting protocols; and

removing outdated references and staggered term requirements. At its

May 21, 2025 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6-1 to

recommend approval of Resolution No. 2025-55, with two

amendments: requiring all members to reside within city limits and

giving the City Commission discretion over attendance related conduct.

Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 21-2025, repealing Article XIV, “Medical

Marijuana Dispensaries,” of Chapter 110 “Zoning,” and amending Article III,

“Establishment of Classifications and Official Zoning Map,” of Chapter 110

“Zoning,” of the Land Development Code of the City of Deltona to prohibit

Medical Marijuana Dispensaries, at first reading.

Ordinance No. 21-2025 proposes a citywide ban on medical marijuana

dispensaries in all zoning districts, removing them as permitted or

conditional uses in the city’s Land Development Code and Land Use

Table. This follows the City Commission’s April 7, 2025 decision to

deny a previous ordinance and pursue a full ban. Existing dispensaries

approved before the ordinance would be allowed to continue operating

under current regulations. While new dispensaries would be prohibited

in Deltona, residents will still have access to facilities in nearby cities

such as Daytona Beach, Orange City, and Port Orange. The Planning

and Zoning Board recommended approval of the ban with a 6-1 vote,

and the City Commission will consider the ordinance on June 16th and

July 7 th, 2025.

Background:

Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 25-2025, amending the General Ordinances,

Section 1-15, “General Penalty,” of Chapter 1, “General Provisions," to update

penalties and enforcement mechanisms and Section 38-73, “Loud Disturbing or

Unnecessary Noises,” of Article III “Noise,” of Chapter 38, “Environment,” to

eliminate the requirement for sworn affidavits, at second reading.

In response to concerns from the Volusia County Sheriff's Office

regarding enforcement mechanisms for City Ordinances, in particular

the City’s Noise Ordinance, the City Attorney's Office has drafted a

revised general penalty provision as directed by the City Commission.

Background:

The general penalty provision of the City Code is the enforcement

mechanism for violations or ordinances that do not have an otherwise

specified penalty and is currently referenced in Chapter 10,

“Amusements, Entertainment, and Block Parties,” Chapter 14,

“Animals,” Chapter 22, “Business,” Chapter 34, “Emergency Services,”

Chapter 38, “Environment,” and Chapter 50, "Solid Waste." The

revised general penalty provides for issuance of a civil citation and fine

of $500.00 without jail time or an escalating series of administrative

fines ranging from $1,000.00 to $15,000.00 depending on multiple

factors, including the gravity of the violation, as provided by Florida

Statutes.

Additionally, the requirement for sworn affidavits to enforce certain

noise complaints has been eliminated from the City’s Noise Ordinance.

Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 26-2025, amending the General Ordinances to

establish Article V, “City Parks and Facilities,” of Chapter 58, "Streets,

Sidewalks, and Other Public Places," to provide rules and regulations pertinent

to city parks and facilities, at second reading.

The City Commission directed the City Attorney's Office to draft

regulations pertaining to the City’s Parks and Facilities to address

health and safety concerns related to smoking and to address recent

requests to conduct metal-detecting activities.

Background:

Section 386.209, Florida Statutes, preempts the regulation of

smoking to the State of Florida, except that “municipalities may further

restrict smoking within the boundaries of any public beaches and

public parks that they own, except that they may not further restrict the

smoking of unfiltered cigars”. Additionally, Section 386.209, Florida

Statutes, “does not preclude the adoption of county or municipal

ordinances that impose more restrictive regulation on the use of

vapor-generating devices.” The proposed ordinance bans smoking

and vaping of any kind, notwithstanding the prohibition on restriction of

smoking unfiltered cigars. The penalty for non-compliance is a

$150.00 fine and may also include suspension from the park for 30

days if warranted.

There is no state preemption of metal detecting regulations. The

proposed ordinance requires any individual conducting metal

detecting to obtain a permit for activities within any city-owned,

controlled, or operated property, facility, park, building, structure,

equipment, appurtenance, and/or adjacent rights-of-way. The penalty

for violation of permit conditions may include suspension of the

permit, a fine of $150.00, and/or suspension from the property for a

period up to one year if warranted.

Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 27-2025 Solicitation on Public Road

Rights-Of-Ways, at first reading.

At the March 18, 2025, Regular City Commission, the City Commission

directed the City Attorney’s Office to draft an ordinance create

additional permit procedures and regulations governing solicitation

activities upon non-state of Florida public road rights-of-way and in city

public parks. The permit process requires registration and notification

of intended solicitation activities, payment of a license fee, and

exemption from fees for non-profit organizations. The City does not

intend these regulations to inhibit, regulate, or prohibit political

campaigning or expression of political views or other protected speech,

without solicitation.

Background:

Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 28-2025 Lobbyists Registration, Lobbying

Disclosures, and Payment of Fees, at first reading.

Pursuant to direction received by the City Commission at the April 21,

2025, Regular City Commission Meeting, the City Attorney’s Office has

drafted an ordinance to set forth the rules, requirements, and

restrictions that apply to lobbyists and others who may try from time to

time to influence the acts and decisions of the City Commission or

other final decisionmakers within the City.

Background:

9. ACTION ITEMS:

Request for an extension of Resolution No. 2025-63, the Zoning in Progress

regarding amendments to the Land Development Code Article IV, Stormwater

Management.

On February 3, 2025, the City Commission approved Resolution No.

2025-63, establishing Zoning in Progress for proposed amendments to

Article IV, Stormwater Management, of the Land Development Code,

with an initial 120-day period for staff and the City’s consultant to draft

revisions. Additional time is needed to ensure the proposed

amendments are comprehensive and aligned with the City’s goals.

Therefore, staff is requesting a 120-day extension to complete the

amendment process and prepare for formal Commission review and

consideration.

Background:

Request for approval of Resolution No. 2025-65 accepting FEMA Subaward

Grant for reconstruction at 2890 Blackburn Ave and authorizing up-front

payment of the Resident Cost Share to be reimbursed fully by the Resident.

2890 Blackburn Avenue was severely impacted by Hurricane Ian. The

property was nearly unhabitable while the resident worked on the

interior repairs & restoration efforts. The resident applied for HMGP

assistance to have the home demolished & rebuilt.

Background:

The estimated cost to demolish & rebuild the home is $491,711 which

FEMA will cover $191,082 while the homeowner will be responsible for

the remaining non-federal share of $312,571 (~63%). This estimate is

based on data from 2022 when the application was submitted, and the

final cost for demolition & rebuild may deviate from the original

estimate. The homeowner is working with CDBG for applications for

SHIP & CDBG-DR funding assistance with the funding of the local

(resident) match. Staff is requesting authorization to pay the

non-federal share up front provided an agreement is executed

guaranteeing repayment and showing proof of funds from the resident.

Request for approval of Resolution No. 2025-64 and the Task Authorization

between the City of Deltona & Pegasus Engineering for Grant Management

Services, specific to the home demolition and rebuild at 2890 Blackburn

Avenue in an amount of $32,200.

Due to the impacts of Hurricane Milton & Nicole, the City identified a

number of homes that were flooded due to one or both of these

disasters. Working with our consultant, Pegasus Engineering the City

was able to present several homes to the Division of Emergency

Management (FDEM) for consideration under the Hazard Mitigation

Grant Program (HMGP). HMGP is a FEMA funded program that is

administered on behalf of FEMA through FDEM.

Background:

The existing residential structure at 2890 Blackburn Avenue is in the

Theresa Basin drainage basin. The Theresa Basin watershed is

classified as a closed (land-locked) drainage basin that has an

extensive history of structural and roadway flooding. The property owner

requested that the City assist in mitigating future flood events by

demolishing the existing home and rebuilding the home at least 1 foot

above the base flood elevation. The City upfronted the application cost

for this property. The property has now received “approval” by FDEM &

FEMA to proceed.

This is a demolishing & rebuilding grant application the maximum

funding or Federal Cost $179,140. The City committed to up-front the

cost of the approved projects, so long as the resident(s) had secured

the cost share funding of $312,571. If/when the resident has secured

that match, that match will be provided to the City of Deltona as the

grant sub-recipient and Pegasus Engineering will provide Grant

Management Services for the applicant on behalf of the City.

Request for rehearing of Ordinance No. 12-2024, request to amend the Official

Zoning Map to rezone 36.46 acres of land located along the North Normandy

Boulevard corridor south and east of the I-4 Logistics Park within the Activity

Center from Single-Family Residential (R1-AA) to Mixed-Use Planned Unit

Development (MPUD).

The applicant has requested a rehearing of Ordinance No. 12-2024,

which sought to rezone approximately 36.46 acres along the North

Normandy Boulevard corridor from Single-Family Residential (R1-AA)

to Mixed-Use Planned Unit Development (MPUD), in alignment with the

City’s Comprehensive Plan for the Activity Center. The proposed

MPUD includes a mix of non-residential uses and a multi-family

residential component, supporting economic development and

integrated land use. The ordinance was denied by a 4-3 vote on May

19, 2025. The applicant submitted a rehearing request on May 28,

2025, asserting that key facts or points of law were overlooked. In

accordance with Section 110-1005 of the City’s Code, the Commission

must now determine whether to grants the rehearing and, if so, set a

date and time for a new public hearing.

Background:

Request for consideration, that the Sergeant David G. Ledgerwood American

Post 255 be given a 100-year lease at one dollar ($1) a year and allow them to

own their building.

At the Regular Commission Meeting held on May 19, 2025, Mayor

Avila requested to place this item on the next agenda for approval.

Background:

Discussion regarding the implementation of a temporary building moratorium.

At the May 5, 2025, City Commission meeting, a Commissioner

requested discussion of a temporary moratorium on development to

allow time for implementing updated impact fees. Any moratorium

would require adoption of an ordinance and must exempt 23 currently

vested development applications. Staff is seeking general direction

from the Commission to begin drafting ordinance language, as

requested.
