The City Commission’s first reading was scheduled for Aug. 5. The city meeting calendar confirms that meeting took place, but the listing does not show the first-reading vote result. The Aug. 19 meeting is the next scheduled step; the proposal’s approval or postponement has not been established.

What the proposal would change

The city says the Phase II area contains multiple zoning classifications that do not match the downtown vision and create barriers to redevelopment. The proposed land-development-code amendment and rezoning are intended to align the Downtown Mixed-Use district with the CRA boundaries as part of the approved Development of Regional Impact.

The CRA covers approximately 136 acres near Sample Road and University Drive. A June 2026 report described approximately 58 acres as slated for rezoning and said the proposal would consolidate several zoning types into a Downtown Mixed-Use district. The change could affect future mixed-use development standards and property-use flexibility in the downtown area.

The Coral Springs CRA hired Calvin, Giordano and Associates in 2024 to assist with Phase II implementation. The City Commission’s Aug. 19 meeting will provide the next public opportunity for action on the rezoning and code amendment.
