Aventura Metropolitan Urban Center Zoning District Overlay
Description
New zoning overlay enabling transit-oriented development around the Brightline station and Aventura Mall; passed first reading.
Impact summary
This sets the ground rules for future high-rise, mixed-use development near transit — and keeps that decision-making in Aventura rather than at county hall. Residents will see the core, center, and edge districts mapped in phases through May.
