Proposal

The City proposes to create incentives for non-transient residential development along Lincoln Road between Drexel Avenue and Collins Avenue by increasing maximum floor area ratio (FAR) from 2.75 to 3.5 and height limits up to 150 feet on the south side and 125 feet on the north side. The proposal aims to encourage permanent residential uses and discourage short-term rentals to help reverse the City's population decline from 87,779 in 2010 to 80,017 in 2022.
