Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 06-2026, Amending Chapter 82,  
“Communication Antennas, Antennas and Towers,” of the Land Development  
Code to establish regulations for Small Wireless Facilities, at second and final  
reading.  
Ordinance No. 06-2026 updates Chapter 82 of the Land  
Background:  
Development Code to address small wireless facilities in accordance  
with Section 337.401(7), Florida Statutes, and applicable federal law.  
State legislation requires local governments to permit these facilities  
within the public rights-of-way and limits local regulation to objective,  
reasonable, and nondiscriminatory standards. The amendments  
establish procedures, timelines, and design standards to ensure  
compliance with state law while addressing public safety,  
infrastructure coordination, and visual impacts. The changes are  
procedural in nature, do not change land use or density, are  
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Planning and Zoning  
Board reviewed the proposed ordinance at its regular meeting on  
April 29, 2026, and voted 7-0 to recommend approval by the Mayor  
and City Commission. At first reading, the City Commission voted  
7-0 to approve Ordinance No. 06-2026. Between first and second  
reading, staff revised Section 82-123 to clarify that compliance with  
the Florida Building Code and National Electrical Code shall apply as  
amended from time to time. Staff recommends approval at second  
and final reading.  
C.  
Public Hearing - Ordinance No. 20-2025, Amending 70-30 and Section  
110-814 of the Land Development Code related to barndominiums, metal

Ordinance No. 20-2025 amends Section 70-30 and Section 110-814  
of the Land Development Code to add definitions and updated  
regulations for barndominiums, metal buildings, and storage  
containers. The amendments establish standards related to  
screening, metal buildings, and storage containers. The  
Background:  
amendments establish standards related to screening, materials,  
colors, height, and placement, and clarify where these structures are  
permitted. The changes are intended to provide clearer and more  
consistent standards for applicants and staff and improve  
compatibility with surrounding development. Staff finds the proposed  
amendments consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Planning  
and Zoning Board will hear the item at its regular meeting on May 20,  
2026. Staff will provide an update to the Commission regarding the  
Board’s recommendation. The ordinance is recommended for  
approval at first reading.
