The primary function <br />of the AHAC is to prepare the update of the County's Local Housing Incentives Report. <br />In 2008, 2011, 2014, and 2017 the AHAC prepared the County's update.

That directive included the <br />request to review the county's existing local affordable housing incentives and programs <br />and County regulations impacting and encouraging development of more affordable <br />housing to develop recommendations for improvement. This AHAC report incorporates <br />many of the AHAC's recent findings and recommendations adopted by the AHAC on <br />January 22, 2020, and those ultimately approved by the BCC on February 18, 2020. <br />ANALYSIS <br />In this section, each of the Chapter 420.9076(4), F.S. requirements, A through K, are <br />addressed. For each of the requirements, current citations from the county's <br />Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations (LDRs) are provided.
