No matter where you live in Hollywood, our beach and our public spaces belong to all of us.
The Planning & Development Board will meet Tuesday, September 8 at 5:00 PM, and several major proposals affecting Hollywood’s beach, development rights, and public land are on the agenda.
The beach/1301-related matters are scheduled later in the agenda, after other major items. That makes it especially important that residents show up and remain engaged until these items are heard.
Item 3 — Beach Overlay Program
File No. 26-TZ-18
Proposal affecting building heights along A1A, reportedly allowing heights of up to 200 feet, with provisions reaching as high as 490 feet at the Hollywood Beach Hotel.
Item 4 — Tourism Entitlement for Hotels
File No. 26-F-70c
Proposal involving approximately 2,300 additional hotel rooms.
Item 5 — Flexibility Units
File No. 26-F-70a
Proposal involving approximately 500 flexibility units.
Item 6 — 1301 S Ocean Drive
File No. 25-RESO-73a
The proposed private condominium tower involving public land at 1301 S Ocean Drive.
⚠️ WHY THIS MEETING MATTERS
These proposals could have significant long-term consequences for Hollywood’s beach, development patterns, public land, parks, playgrounds, and community facilities.
Residents need to understand what is being proposed, ask questions, and make their voices heard on the public record.
