March 21, 2007 Meeting Minutes
The Governing Board of the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan Land Authority held a regular
meeting on Wednesday, March 21, 2007 at the Marathon Government Center located at 2798
Overseas Highway, Marathon, Florida. Chairman Sonny McCoy called the meeting to order at
10:25 AM. Present and answering roll call, in addition to Chairman McCoy, were Mayor Mario
Di Gennaro, Commissioner Sylvia Murphy, Commissioner George Neugent, and Commissioner
Dixie Spehar. Also in attendance were Executive Director Mark Rosch, Office Manager
Kimberly Nystrom, Counsel Larry Erskine, and members of the press and public.
The first item on the agenda was approval of minutes for the February 21, 2007 meeting. A
motion was made by Commissioner Neugent and seconded by Commissioner Murphy to
approve the minutes as submitted. There being no objections, the motion carried (5/0).
The next item was approval of a resolution authorizing the purchase and conveyance of Block
H, Lot 10, Part C of Master Plat of North Marathon Shores in partnership with the Monroe
County Board of County Commissioners for affordable housing. The total cost of the acquisition
was $127,353.50. Mr. Rosch addressed the Board. Due to financial, ROGO, neighborhood
acceptance, and hurricane evacuation considerations, the Board requested staff to look into the
purchase of improved properties for affordable housing, rather than purchasing additional
vacant subdivision lots in the future. A motion was made by Mayor Di Gennaro and seconded
by Commissioner Murphy to approve the resolution. There being no objections, the motion
carried (5/0). [Resolution 01-2007]
The next item was approval to purchase eleven parcels on Big Pine Key for conservation. The
properties were identified by RE #110410-000000, 110410-000100, 110410-000200, 110410-

AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Meeting Date: April 18, 2007 Division: Land Authority
Bulk Item: Yes No X Contact / Phone #: Mark Rosch / 295-5180
Agenda Item Wording: Approval of the 2007 Acquisition List.
Item Background: Each year the Land Authority Advisory Committee prepares an updated Acquisition
List. Although this process takes place on an annual basis, the list may be, and often is, amended
throughout the course of the year. The Advisory Committee has prepared the attached list for 2007
after holding public meetings on January 24, 2007; February 28, 2007; and March 26, 2007.
Per section 380.0667, Florida Statutes, the Board of County Commissioners, sitting as the Land
Authority Governing Board, "shall approve the list of acquisitions, in whole or in part, in the order of
priority recommended by the Advisory Committee."
The proposed list consists primarily of large projects carried forward from last year's list. The only
addition relative to last year's list is an entry for acquisition of existing affordable housing stock. The
deletions relative to last year's list are 1) Wet Net property (acquired); 2) BOCC Conservation and
Natural Areas (replaced by Tier System); 3) Upland Native Habitat of 2 Acres or More Outside CNA per
BOCC Res. 39-2004 (included in Tier 1 areas); and 4) Islamorada Motel (project no longer feasible).
Listing a property on the Acquisition List is a preliminary, non -binding step indicating the Board's desire
to pursue acquisition. Further Board action is required before entering into a purchase contract.
Advisory Committee Action: On March 26, 2007 the Committee voted 3/0 to approve and forward
the list to the Governing Board.

WHEREAS, Dean Parkinson (hereinafter "Applicant') submitted an application for
administrative relief under Sec. 9.5-122.2(f) of the Monroe County Land Development
Regulations, and
WHEREAS, the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners makes the following
findings of fact and conclusions of law; and
1. Applicant's application for administrative relief is for Block 10, Lots 1 & 2, Bowens
Addition Riviera Village, Key Largo, RE#00512580-00000 & 00512580-000100
(hereinafter "subject property').
2. Applicant applied for a building permit on July 08, 2002 and a Rate of Growth Ordinance
(ROGO) allocation on October 09, 2002 for the subject properties.
3. Section 9.5-122.2(f) of the Monroe County Code provides a mechanism whereby an
applicant who has not received an allocation award in ROGO may apply to the Board of
County Commissioners for administrative relief.
4. The applicant applied for administrative relief on January 09, 2006.
5. Applicant's ROGO allocation application has been in the ROGO system for three (3) of
the last four (4) annual allocation periods and therefore qualifies for administrative relief
under Section 9.5-122(f)(1)c of the Monroe County Code.
6. Applicant's ROGO allocation application has been in the ROGO system for at least four
(4) consecutive years and therefore qualifies for administrative relief under Policy
101.6.1 of the Monroe County Year 2010 Comprehensive Plan,
7. The Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) has the authority to grant administrative
relief under Section 9.5-122.2(f)(6) of the Monroe County Code to qualified applicants
and may gram the applicant a ROGO allocation, offer to purchase the property at fair
market value, or provide such other relief as may be necessary and appropriate.
8. Policy 101.6.6 of the Monroe County Year 2010 Comprehensive Plan calls for the Board
to base the acquisition decision for administrative relief applications on the property's
environmental sensitivity per Policy 101.6.5.
9. The acquisition criteria in Policy 101.6.5 of the Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan include the environmental sensitivity of the vegetative habitat on the
subject property.
AMMSTRAUVE RELIEF RESOLUTION Page l of 3
BASSI, RE#00500930.000000
10. The subject property consists of low elevation low quality tropical hardwood hammock.
Based on this classification, the subject property received negative two (-2)
environmental points for an environmental total of negative two (-2) points in the ROGO
system evaluation criteria. The subject property is also designated as a Tier 3A Special
Protection Area in the proposed Tier system.
11. Board of County Commissioners Resolution #223-2004 directs staff to identify small
parcels with indigenous hammock or pinelands that are ineligible for purchase by the
State with Florida Forever funds, limit the issuance of permits for clearing on said
parcels, and recommend said parcels for purchase by the Monroe County Land Authority.

by the State with Florida Forever funds.

COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, THAT:

Block 10, Lots 1 & 2, Bowens Addition of Riviera Village, Key Largo.
2. In accordance with Policy 101.6.5, 101.6.6, and BOCC Resolution 223-2004, the
appropriate form of administrative relief for this application is an offer to purchase. The
issuance of a ROGO allocation would be inconsistent with the Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan and BOCC Resolution 223-2004.
3. The Monroe County Land Authority is requested to have the subject property appraised
and subsequently make an offer to purchase same.
