Dear Secretary Pelham:
It is my understanding that the Florida Department of Com-
munity Affairs (DCA) has recorronended the extension of the
state area of critical concern for another year until such
time as satisfactory progress is made in protecting the Flori-
da Keys' environmental resources. That decision involved an
dssessment of compliance with the principles for guiding devel-
opment/ especially the protection of transportation and solid
waste disposal facilities, and progress in devising an accept-
able concurrency management strategy. There is the likelihood
that, given the difficulty of implementing such a strategy,
some time will be required before progress becomes evident.
Locally, we estimate designation as a critical area may not
oc€ur by July 15/ 1990/ again because of insufficient time for
new policies to effect change.
In the meanwhile, Monroe County is required to comply with
Chapter 163.3167(2)/ F.S., and prepare a revised comprehensive
plan; Florida Administrative Code 9J-12.006, the "Schedule for
Submission of Revised Local Government Comprehensive Plans/"
sets out a June 1/ 1990/ deadline for submission of the revi-
sions to your department. There is, however, provision for
requesting an extension, not to exceed July 1/ 1991.
Considering the complexity of implementing the concurrency
management plan while preparing a Keys-wide traffic model to
assess current and extrapolate future traffic demand, as well
as the need to generate the entire future land use element
that must coordinate anticipated transportation facilities
capacity with estimated development patterns of land use, the
local community thinks that the June 1, 1990/ deadline may be
unreasonable. Furthermore, the county is presently creating a
base map on a geographic information system that should short-
2n and simplify the planning process for preparing the future
ldnd use and revising the transportation element. This process
is anticipated to be completed in 1990. Finally, the county
growth management division estimates a cost exceeding $500,000
for revising the comprehensive plan, a burden for our citizens
which could be less burdensome if divided over a two-year peri-
od.
Therefore, in conclusion, I am requesting your cooperation
and support in securing an amendment to the submission sched-
ule to allow Monroe County to provide its revised comprehen-
sive plan on July 1, 1991. This appears to be a reasonable
alternative to the present deadline in consideration of the
important work to be accomplished in the months ahead.
Very truly yours,
Michael H. Puto
Mayor
