Transit Oriented Corridor Code Amendment
The second and final reading of a code amendment to Chapter 12, Article 13 (Special Planning Areas, Transit Oriented Corridor) was approved. This amendment modifies the TOC regulations to help ensure the affordable housing component of the corridor is implementable, a significant step for development along the US-441 corridor.

- ATV/Street Takeover Concerns: Council discussed the growing problem of organized ATV and motorcycle groups conducting “street takeovers” on Griffin Road and Flamingo Road. Police Chief explained these are social media-organized events and enforcement is challenging, but the department monitors and intercepts when possible. The issue is countywide.
- Staff Recognition: Assistant Town Clerk Jillian Brewster accepted into the Florida Certified Professional Clerk program, one of only 30 participants statewide selected from 411 municipalities
What This Means for Homeowners
The Transit Oriented Corridor amendment is a key piece of the puzzle for Davie’s future along US-441. By making the affordable housing component more implementable, the town is ensuring that large-scale developments like The District include housing options that serve a broader range of residents. This kind of mixed-income development can strengthen neighborhoods and support local retail and services.
The vulnerability assessment study is directly relevant to every homeowner in Davie. Flooding risk affects insurance costs, property values, and quality of life. If you live in areas prone to standing water or near canals, attending future community meetings on this topic is strongly recommended. The ATV/street takeover discussion reflects a quality-of-life concern affecting residents along major corridors, particularly Griffin Road and Flamingo Road, that the police department is actively working to address.
