10 issues in development with high priority
Redevelopment of 1045 SW 11th Way
MBA Development Partners of Florida LLC proposes a major mixed-use project with 150 apartments, a 120-room hotel, office, event, and retail space, plus a five-story garage on 3.75 acres. It's the kind of project that could reshape traffic, housing supply, and the local commercial landscape.
Rivertowne Square redevelopment (736 units)
A developer wants to replace the existing shopping center at 1015-1219 S. Federal Highway with up to 736 apartments and about 81,000 square feet of retail on 14.7 acres. It would be one of the biggest housing additions in the city, bringing more residents, traffic, and customers to the corridor.
Downtown Brewpub and Commercial Building Site Plan
A new three-story commercial building featuring a brewpub, office space, and a rooftop lounge is proposed for the downtown district.
South Federal Highway Mixed-Use Residential Development
A proposed rezoning of 14.7 acres on South Federal Highway aims to allow up to 736 residential dwelling units, bringing major new housing density to the corridor.
Waterfront Development
Deerfield Beach is cutting red tape for waterfront development, opening the door for a wave of new construction just as neighboring cities are cracking down. If you live near the water, expect these rules to quickly change the look and feel of your neighborhood.
Public Safety and Housing
Deerfield Beach is upgrading its public safety gear with a fresh fleet of vehicles and giving the green light to the brand-new Deer Creek Townhomes project. That means better neighborhood protection and new housing options are officially on the way.
Townhome Development at 3116 Deer Creek Country Club Blvd
K. Hovnanian is bringing 43 new two-story townhomes to a vacant 4.47-acre parcel on Deer Creek Country Club Boulevard. The project replaces a commercial zoning designation with multifamily residential housing, adding a community pool and landscaping improvements.
Neighborhood Revitalization Beautification Program
Commissioner Shanetsky requested expanding the city's tree giveaway program to include condominium associations, though fellow commissioners cited limited tree inventories, deed restrictions, and equitable distribution concerns.
Beachside Development
Deerfield Beach is rethinking its rules for coastal development, which means we could soon see big changes to what gets built right along our shoreline. This is a crucial moment to pay attention if you care about keeping our beach town vibe or stopping massive new construction.
Development Ballot Measure
You'll be voting soon on a massive new mixed-use development project proposed by Hensel Phelps in Deerfield Beach. This ballot measure will decide whether the large-scale construction moves forward in your community.
