Public hearing ordinance number 24-2025, creating chapter one one-one architectural and building design standards and amending section 70-30 definitions of the land development code of the City of Deltona to include regulation updates and guidance regarding architectural design and aesthetics for commercial and industrial development. Staff is bringing forward a proposed amendment to create chapter one eleven of the land development code, establishing architectural and building design standards for non-residential development. These guidelines follow City Commission direction earlier this year and are rooted in long-standing goals to improve the visual quality of development citywide. A zoning in progress has been in place since January, and the draft standards have been shared with new numerous applicants during this time with no pushback to date. This is a balancing act though, where we don't want to go overboard with these standards and limit or stop good development and redevelopment from happening by making it too costly to do so. So we definitely looked at this amendment through that lens. We did use a document, the 2008 there was a pattern book created by another consultant. It was shelved, it didn't move forward, and so this is kind of dusting off some of the concepts from that pattern book. It was kind of policy based, and it wasn't code that you could insert directly in the land development code, but it really served as the basis in some of the visionary pieces of this proposed amendment.
