Frantz Jean-Baptiste Joins Pembroke Pines Planning & Zoning Board

Pembroke Pines has a new face on its Planning & Zoning Board, with the recent appointment of local resident Frantz Jean-Baptiste. The City Commission approved Jean-Baptiste's addition to the influential board, which plays a crucial role in shaping the future development and land use within our thriving Broward County community.

The Planning & Zoning Board is responsible for reviewing development proposals, zoning changes, and comprehensive plan amendments. Their recommendations are then forwarded to the City Commission for final approval. This body's decisions directly impact everything from new business construction along major thoroughfares like University Drive to residential neighborhood layouts in family-friendly areas like SilverLakes and the preservation of green spaces such as the recreational areas in C.B. Smith Park.

Jean-Baptiste's appointment is effective immediately. Residents can expect to see his participation in upcoming board meetings, where he will contribute to discussions and decisions that guide Pembroke Pines' growth and ensure it aligns with the community's vision.

The Planning & Zoning Board typically meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM in the Commission Chambers at City Hall, located at 10211 Pines Boulevard. These meetings are open to the public, providing an opportunity for residents to stay informed and offer input on proposed developments and zoning matters.
