The Redevelopment Plan for the Southridge/S.W. 4th Avenue area lays the framework for development, redevelopment, and enhancement of improved and vacant properties within Redevelopment Area #3, as identified on the City of Delray Beach Future Land Use Map. The study area is located north of Linton Boulevard, south of S.W. 10th Street, east of S.W. 10th Avenue, and west of Dixie Highway. Although not a part of the redevelopment area, the area bordered by S.W. 10th Street to the north, S.W. 11th Street to the south, PineGroveElementary School to the east, and S.W. 8th Avenue to the west is identified as the "Expanded Study Area". This area is discussed due to identifed needs with respect to redevelopment, including water, sewer, lighting, and road infrastructure improvements.
The purpose of the plan is to recommend alternatives for improvement and stabilization of existing residential neighborhoods and non-residential properties, and compatible land uses with appropriate zoning and Future Land Use Map designations for vacant properties, most notably vacant parcels located at the northwest corner of S.W. 4th Avenue and Linton Boulevard. Although the user is encouraged to read the Plan in its entirety, the document has been divided into sections to reduce download time and to allow the reader to focus on specific elements.
