Title
Introduction to the LPGA Ad Hoc Committee
Summary:
In June of 2018, the Town of Belleair adopted “Ordinance 521 - Special Relief Permits” to create a formal process to provide temporary relief from certain sections of the Code. Later, in March of 2020, the Town adopted “Ordinance 529 - Amending Special Relief Permits” to create a carve-out for larger-scale events (including the Pelican Women’s Championship). Both of these ordinances have been attached to this item.
The ordinance and application forms for regular and major events require applicants to specify all requested exemptions and to attach documentation to assist Town staff and the Commission in the decision making process. Major events must be noticed to surrounding residents and approved by the Commission at two public meetings by a simple majority. To assist with the event permitting process for the Pelican Women’s Championship, the Commission has established the LPGA Ad Hoc Committee. This committee is comprised of Belleair residents and will hold three meetings in 2021.
Additional information on the event permitting process, the role of this committee, and the public meeting dates for the Pelican Women’s Championship are attached.
