facilities, as identified by the School Board of Broward County:
Elementary school
Student Capacity: 995
Site Size: 12 Acres
Dimensions (Feet): 720 x 720
Elementary Schools generally serve a neighborhood or a small group of neighborhoods
where students have a short distance to walk. Land uses should be predominantly
residential with housing types and densities to meet the school's enrollment capacity.
Playgrounds can be collocated with elementary schools. In higher density areas,
neighborhood parks with elderly facilities, neighborhood recreation centers, and library
branches can be included.
Middle school
Student Capacity: 1,719
Site Size: 20 Acres
Dimensions (Feet): 1,250 (front) x 730 (depth)
Middle schools have a community orientation, and a limited mix of commercial and
residential uses nearby is acceptable. Community parks, athletic fields, community centers,
and libraries are appropriate for collocation.
High school
Student Capacity: 2,677
Site Size: 45 Acres
Dimensions (Feet): 1,300 (front) x 1,500 (depth)
High schools should be buffered from residential areas. The campus should be large

controls to avoid disruptive offsite parking and dangerous driving situations on
neighborhood roads. Collocated public facilities can include community centers, community
or district parks, athletic fields, and libraries.

3. Medium (10-16) Residential
4. Medium High (16-21-5) Residential
5. High (25-50) Residential
6. Commercial
7. Community Facilities
8. Industrial
The City consists of approximately 7,142 total acres, of which 5,481 acres (78 percent) will
have a future land use designation that allows public schools upon adoption of the school
siting and collocation Future Land Use Element. Given that approximately 78 percent of all
lands within Tamarac have future land use designations that permit public schools, it is
reasonable to assume that future land use designations will not be an impediment in
location and development of new public school sites.
Policy 19.3 The City of Tamarac, in its effort to assist in providing suitable locations for new public
schools, shall encourage collocation of new schools with existing and new public facilities,
including libraries, parks, and community centers. The following criteria shall be used in

1. Availability of vacant land and adjacent land use patterns;
2. Demographics;
3. Applicable health, safety, and welfare issues impacting the proposed site(s) (i.e.,
contaminated sites, wellfield protection);
4. Level of service standards for existing infrastructure and necessary upgrades to
accommodate new educational facility; and
5. Proximity to existing residential neighborhoods and mass transit.

surrounding land development patterns, and shall be an enhancement to the community as
a whole.

consideration to collocation of proposed community facilities with public schools.
Policy 19.6 The City shall incorporate provisions in its Land Development Code to require new

of safe pedestrian and bicycle access to public schools.
Policy 19.8 The City shall encourage siting of new public schools in locations with convenient access to
mass transit.

be conveyed to the public by deed, easement or other legal means at the time of plat
recordation.
Policy 22.2 In order to protect the transportation corridors identified on the Broward County Trafficways
Plan within the City, the City shall require that development is set back from identified
rights -of -way when issuing development orders while providing an administrative relief
process to ensure such set back does not deny all beneficial use of the property proposed
for development.
Arrangement of Dwelling Units
Any arrangement of dwelling units on a parcel of land designated for residential use is compatible with the
City's Land Use Plan as long as the maximum number of dwelling units permitted within the parcel is not
exceeded. The distribution of units will be determined by zoning of the parcel and other restrictions
imposed by the City of Tamarac Code of Ordinances.

residential densities.
Rearrangement of residential densities utilizing flexibility units will be administered within "flexibility
zones". The boundaries of and rules governing "flexibility zones" and rearrangement of residential
densities therein, will be established within Broward County Planning Council's "Administrative Rules
