Billie Wheeler talked a few upcoming events, then asked to play the video showing bad behavior during Daytona Truck Week that attracted attention at the Daytona Beach City Commission last week. A lot of these events take over a whole new life through social media and what happens over the bridge is total destruction, she said. That was appalling to me, to see those things.
She said it s got to stop and she s engaging in conversations with several of the beachside city leaders.
Ben Johnson said to follow the playbook that stopped Spring Break and Black College Reunion and other events that got out of control.
Impact fees help pay for infrastructure needs created by new development
Florida s population has grown from 18.8 million to 21.5 million over the past 10 years
DAYTONA BEACH As Florida s roads become increasingly clogged amid the unrelenting stream of newcomers, state lawmakers have passed a bill that limits how much counties and cities can raise impact fees to accommodate that growth.
The bill, which Gov. Ron DeSantis is expected to sign into law, caps impact fee increases to no more than 12.5% in a given year and no more than 50% over a four-year period. I m disappointed and even a little bit surprised, said Volusia County Chair Jeff Brower. He described the recently passed bill, HB 337, as an unnecessary effort by state lawmakers to take away the decision-making ability of local governments.
A 2011 Florida law prohibits cities and counties from regulating the length or frequency of stay in short-term rentals, but grandfathered in regulations already codified. Volusia County s rules haven t changed since 2004, so it was allowed to remain in effect.
Rentals of less than 30 days are regulated under Volusia County’s hotel/motel zoning rule. Hotels and motels (and, therefore, short-term rentals) are only allowed in areas zoned for tourism or some types of commercial activity. The problem is that any action amending the current ordinance on short-term rentals may trigger the state pre-emption, Thomson said. The state does not have a 30-day minimum. If the state law applied, it would be one day. And that s the concern.
