Title

A Resolution of the City Commission of the City of Coral Gables, Florida, authorizing a ninety-day extension of a Zoning in Progress related to access to the public rights-of-way for wireless facilities; providing an effective date. 

Body

On July 11, 2017, the Commission adopted Resolution No. 2017-205 (the “Zoning in Progress Resolution”) issuing a Zoning in Progress in accordance with Article 3, Division 7 of the Zoning Code for the consideration of Zoning Code Text Amendments to Article 5, Division 20 “Telecommunications” addressing wireless communications facilities and Article 8 “Definitions,” to implement the recently passed Florida legislation known as the “Advanced Wireless Infrastructure Deployment Act.”

 

On October 24, 2017, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2017-330 which authorized a sixty-day extension of the Zoning in Progress Resolution through February 13, 2018.  On January 23, 2018, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2018-27 which authorized a ninety-day extension of the Zoning in Progress Resolution through May 22, 2018.  Additional time is necessary to develop the amendments to the Zoning Code and City Code and thus, the public interest requires a 90-day extension of the Zoning in Progress Resolution. 

 

Nothing in this Resolution shall affect or waive the Citys right to establish applicable regulations by Ordinance to implement the Advanced Wireless Infrastructure Deployment Act, consistent with applicable law.
