Hallandale Beach leaders will consider charging $100 a day to film within the city at its meeting Wednesday.
Last year, commissioners asked staff to look at filming regulations after seeing an increase in crews using residential neighborhoods for TV, commercial and movie productions.
The new law would also require at least 15 days notice, would limit the time of filming from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. weekdays and 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. weekends and holidays, and would require crews to direct lighting away from residential neighborhoods.
Hallandale Beach would be the first municipality in Broward County to have its own film regulations. Permits now go through the county.
In 2012, there were eight permits given out to film in Hallandale Beach; six were given in 2011.
The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall, 400 S. Federal Hwy.
