South Gardens| Consistency with Comprehensive Plan
The addition of multi-family rental communities within
the City is supported by the goals, policies, and
objectives set forth within the Palm Beach Gardens
Comprehensive Plan
Housing Element
•Goal 3.1.: The provision of sustainable, safe, and sanitary
housing which meets the needs of all existing and future Palm
Beach Gardens residents.
•Objective 3.1.1.: Strive to fulfill the City housing needs while
promoting sustainable and energy efficient standards.
South Gardens Apartments
Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Future Land Use Element
•Policy 1.1.1.15.: Mixed Use Development (MXD): The Mixed Use Development
category is designed for new development which is characterized by a variety of
integrated land use types. The intent of the category is to provide for a mixture of
uses on single parcels in order to develop sites which are sensitive to the
surrounding uses, desired character of the community, and the capacity of public
facilities to service proposed developments. This Future Land Use category is also
intended to foster infill and redevelopment efforts, to deter urban sprawl and to
encourage new affordable housing opportunities, as well as lessen the need for
additional vehicular trips through the internalization of trips within a
neighborhood or project. To create a functioning, multi-faceted type of
development, mixed use development is dependent on the successful integration of
distinct uses. Integration is defined as the combination of distinct uses on a single
site where the impacts from differing uses are mitigated through site design
techniques, and where impacts from differing uses are expected to benefit from the
close proximity of complementary uses. All requests for development approval
based on a mixed use concept must be able to demonstrate functional horizontal
integration of the allowable uses, and where applicable, vertical integration as well.
