Jacksonville operates as a consolidated city-county government with Duval County. Jacksonville City Council, Planning Commission, and Board of Adjustment handle PUD amendments, land use amendments, rezonings, and variances. PUD (Planned Unit Development) amendments are the dominant entitlement mechanism, frequently modifying development rights across the city's 874 square miles of territory. Waterfront development filings concentrate along the St. Johns River, particularly on the Southbank and in the Brooklyn/Riverside area. The Southside and St. Johns Town Center corridors generate high volumes of FLUM amendments for density increases. Historic Springfield and Riverside-Avondale produce infill variance applications for projects in older urban neighborhoods.
