Pompano Real Estate Investments Seeks Rezoning for Modera Site

Pompano Real Estate Investments is seeking a rezoning of its property at 855 S Federal Highway in Pompano Beach, under a city agenda item titled Modera Rezoning. The request, filed as P&Z case #25-13000002, is scheduled to go before the city’s Planning and Zoning Board on October 28, 2026, according to the board’s published agenda.

Why it matters

The parcel, folio 494306490010, currently carries a Commercial land use designation and sits in the B-3 General Business zoning district along the Federal Highway corridor in Broward County’s Commission District 1. The agenda does not state what zoning the applicant is requesting in its place, only that a rezoning is before the board. The item’s name, Modera Rezoning, uses a brand Mill Creek Residential Trust applies nationally to its apartment communities, which points to a residential or mixed-use reuse of a commercial corridor site, though the city has not yet confirmed that pairing and the hearing has not occurred. Rezonings along this stretch of Federal Highway have drawn developer interest as South Florida cities push to convert aging commercial strips into housing.

The numbers

• P&Z case #25-13000002, agenda item LN-800
• Property: 855 S Federal Highway, folio 494306490010
• Current zoning: B-3 (General Business), land use: Commercial
• Commission District 1, represented by Audrey Fesik

What’s next

The Pompano Beach Planning and Zoning Board is set to take up the case at its October 28, 2026 meeting, 6 p.m. at Commission Chambers, 100 West Atlantic Boulevard. The application is listed under agent Christina Bilenki, with city planner Max Wemyss assigned to the case. No rezoning has been approved. The board’s vote, and any conditions attached to it, will determine whether the site advances toward a Modera-branded project or another use entirely. The American Developer will track the outcome as part of its ongoing South Florida development coverage.
