The design review committee also approved the site plan for Villas at Pompano Beach, a cluster of 20 three-story townhouses at South Riverside Drive and Southeast 8th Street. The project owner is IDP Development, LLC.

Gustavo Carbonell, an agent for the developers, told the committee the site plan for Villas at Pompano Beach will be adjusted to add a little more parking: “We have 12 parking spaces off-site,” but “we need two more on-site.”

Proposed developments approved by the design review committee advance to Pompano’s planning and zoning department for its review.

Pompano Beach is starting to feel the early stages of a new boom that is attracting luxury condo developers to redevelop the beachfront, while providing buyers with an affordable alternative to its southern coastal neighbors like Fort Lauderdale and Sunny Isles Beach.
