PREFACE

This volume contains the City of Port Orange Land Development Code, as adopted by the City Council of Port Orange, Florida, by Ordinance No. 1990-33, enacted October 23, 1990, as amended.

Amendatory legislation is noted in the history notes appearing in parentheses at the ends of the sections.

The Land Development Code has been printed substantially as adopted, and the original section and subsection numbering system has been retained. However, a uniform capitalization standard and a uniform system of citation to numbers in text have been imposed by the editors and obvious typographical errors have been corrected without notation; where deemed necessary, words or phrases added by the editors for purposes of clarification are enclosed in brackets.

Page Numbering System

The page numbering system used in this Code is a prefix system. The letters to the left of the colon are an abbreviation which represents a certain portion of the volume. The number to the right of the colon represents the number of the page in that portion. In the case of a chapter of the Code, the number to the left of the colon indicates the number of the chapter. In the case of an appendix to the Code, the letter A immediately to the left of the colon indicates that it is a page of the appendix. The following are typical parts of codes of ordinances, which may or may not appear in this Code at this time, and their corresponding prefixes:

Index

The index has been prepared with the greatest of care. Each particular item has been placed under several headings, some of which are couched in lay phraseology, others in legal terminology, and still others in language generally used by local government officials and employees. There are numerous cross references within the index itself which stand as guideposts to direct the user to the particular item in which the user is interested.

Looseleaf Supplements

A special feature of this publication is the looseleaf system of binding and supplemental servicing of the publication. With this system, the publication will be kept up-to-date. Subsequent amendatory legislation will be properly edited, and the affected page or pages will be reprinted. These new pages will be distributed to holders of copies of the publication, with instructions for the manner of inserting the new pages and deleting the obsolete pages.

Keeping this publication up-to-date at all times will depend largely upon the holder of the publication. As revised pages are received, it will then become the responsibility of the holder to have the amendments inserted according to the attached instructions. It is strongly recommended by the publisher that all such amendments be inserted immediately upon receipt to avoid misplacing them and, in addition, that all deleted pages be saved and filed for historical reference purposes.

Acknowledgments

The publisher is most grateful to Shirley M. Kelley, CMC, Deputy City Clerk and Maureen Sikora, City Attorney, for their cooperation and assistance during the progress of the work on this publication. It is hoped that their efforts and those of the publisher have resulted in a Land Development Code which will make the active law of the city readily accessible to all citizens and which will be a valuable tool in the day-to-day administration of the city's affairs.

This publication was under the direct supervision of Linda G. Davis, Senior Editor, and Mary Grace Tavel, Supervising Editor, of the Municipal Code Corporation, Tallahassee, Florida. Credit is gratefully given to the other members of the publisher's staff for their sincere interest and able assistance throughout the project.
