Background/Summary: 

The City of Riviera Beach’s Comprehensive Plan and Code of Ordinances controls and directs development and land use throughout the City.  The approved Marina District Master Plan acknowledges that the Marina District Upland Area is a unique redevelopment location, requiring distinctive signage and way-finding elements.  City staff believes that creation of an overlay district to provide additional design standards and opportunity for signage within the Marina Upland Area will help establish the Marina Upland Area as a distinctive destination point within the City (overlay map attached as Exhibit ‘A’).  Amendments to the existing sign design and installation standards, described within the City’s Code of Ordinances (Chapter 28), are required in order to establish new sign regulations within the Marina Upland Area Sign Overlay District.  On May 12, 2016, the Planning and Zoning Board reviewed and unanimously recommended that the City Council approve proposed amendments to the City’s Sign Code which would provide the opportunity for unique signage within the Marina District Upland Area.  The first reading of this Ordinance was unanimously approved on June 15, 2016.
