General Information

Per City Code Sec. 4-7. - Reports. (a) All boards shall provide an annual report from the previous year to the City Commission, including their goals for the following year. The City Commission shall review the annual reports, duties, responsibilities, and goals of the boards and thereafter meet with the boards to address issues if necessary.

Three options are available to accomplish the above requirement:

1. Request a joint meeting at a regular meeting and present a report at the joint meeting.
2. Submit a report at a special recognition meeting.
3. Submit the report to the City Manager, who will forward it with a cover memo to the City Commission.

The attached draft annual report includes the Zoning Board of Appeal's goals and a summary of the quasi-judicial hearings the Board and the Zoning Hearing Officer heard in 2023. This is an opportunity to review and revise those goals for 2024. In years past, the Zoning Board of Appeals has opted for Option #3. This is also an opportunity for the Board and the Zoning Hearing Officer to either continue with Option #3 or select other options to submit their annual report to the City Commission.
