On December 17, 2025, the Deltona Planning and Zoning Board convened at 6:00 PM in the Deltona Commission Chambers, with nine members and alternates present and two excused. The meeting lasted 15 minutes, adjourning at 6:15 PM. The board considered one major item: Ordinance No. 36-2025 regarding certified recovery residences, and made a unanimous recommendation to the City Commission.
Meeting adjourned at 6:15 PM.
Development code updating procedures and regulations related to certified recovery residences in compliance with Florida statutes, providing for conflicts, codification, cyberability, and an effective date. You all have previously seen another version of this ordinance and recommended it to the city commission, the city commission at their uh first public hearing directed significant changes related to the uh regulations surrounding certified recovery residences. The accommodation procedures remain the same. Uh and uh Jessica will be uh doing the staff report on this item. I do want to ask, do you just want the changes or do you want the full PowerPoint? I do want to ask everyone that um I vote for just the changes. Does anybody else have any objection to that? Not at all. Not me. They're all pretty, they're all pretty clearly laid out in front of us. So but but the Chris question before she starts absolutely can I just ask what um I'm sorry, but what meeting did they discuss the changes that they wanted? Because at the November 3rd meeting they voted to table. Yes, ma'am, at the number November 3rd meeting they voted to table with direction to reach out to counsel for the land and to uh model the regulations that they have on their books through our office. We did so, they were um able to provide us with their ordinances and regulations, and um we use that as our model. I might be mistaken, but I watched it today. They tabled it and asked for a workshop. So the only thing that I'm saying is I I get all these changes, and they totally changed what you said. But if the commission is asking for a workshop, what does it really I mean? We can agree to let them do it, but they didn't get their workshop. So that's all that's my only question. May I? Uh sure, go ahead. It is it possible that we're doing this to meet the one one deadline, and then maybe there'll be still be a workshop. Can this be revised after it so uh between first and second reading they can make non-substantial changes? So as long as the intent and um general regulatory scheme are the same, you can make changes between first and second reading. The reason this had to come back to you all for recommendation is because the changes were significant, it was um very much a different ordinance than um what you previously saw. Yeah, I'm wondering, Rachel, maybe that's it if they're doing it to meet the one-one deadline, and then before the second reading, they'll be a workshop. And you are correct, we are under a a time clock with the with statutory compliance. But that's that's a that was a good call out, so thank you. I watched it today. I know I had nothing but new and working to watch old meetings. I didn't do it at work. Okay, Jessica, I think we're ready for you. Go right ahead, please. All right, your major changes are gonna be section one ten eight fourteen. Um, your changes are gonna be your occupant occupancy limits, parking requirements, um, your maximum buffer separations. So there is a separation of a thousand feet from all other certified recovery residences, as well as community residential homes. Um, there's also on-site management requirements, building and fire code compliance.
