Neighborhood Development Criteria Revisions (NDCR) Initiative

Photo of meetingThe Neighborhood Development Criteria Revisions Initiative is an exciting new project intended to protect the best qualities of Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods and ensure the City continues to create active, diverse, and livable communities. During the week of May 11, 2009, four community workshops were held to present an overview of the project’s goals, objectives, timelines and scope of work, and most importantly, to obtain input from attendees regarding:

  • Issues related to neighborhood development;
  • Creating a vision for future neighborhood development; and
  • Making recommendations for new guidelines to preserve
    neighborhood character.
