Hollywood Updates Development Guide for City Planning

The City of Hollywood’s Division of Planning & Urban Design has released an updated Development Guide for the Development Review Committee (DRC) process. The guide aims to help steer the city’s ongoing growth and changes in a sustainable, compatible, and vibrant direction, ensuring new projects complement iconic areas like the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk.

Hollywood, the third-largest city in Broward County with over 150,000 residents, is experiencing constant neighborhood evolution. The Development Planning section plays a key role in shaping this growth by overseeing the planning and general design through the city's development review process, from the historic Downtown Hollywood to its coastal enclaves.

The updated guide provides information on the revised Development Review Committee process, which is crucial for ensuring that new developments align with the city's vision for a dynamic and well-planned community. The division is responsible for guiding this development to be compatible with existing neighborhoods and to foster a vibrant urban environment.

Residents and developers can access the new Development Guide by downloading the PDF document. This resource is intended to clarify the procedures and standards for development projects within the city, supporting the division's mission to manage Hollywood's expansion effectively.
