completeness /occupancy alone.
Provision of affidavits to support the existence of nonresidential floor area is allowed,
but affidavits cannot be the sole record upon which a decision is based.
Other than files in which the Growth Management Division is custodian, provision of
documents is the responsibility of the applicant.
Nonresidential floor area determined to be exempt from the NROGO per this
subsection that has not been previously acknowledged by the planning director may
also be a nonconformity, pursuant to Chapter 102, Article III Nonconformities. Such
occasions shall require a separate determination by the planning director as to the

transient population, if approved by the board of county commissioners after review

exemption is subject to the condition that a restrictive covenant be placed on the

planning commission is obtained through an off -site transfer of floor area and/or
nonresidential floor area allocation. If the total amount of floor area that is transferred
and/or allocated meets or exceeds the total amount of floor area exempted, the
restrictive covenant shall be vacated by the county. This exemption is not applicable
to nonresidential development proposed within any tier I or tier III -A (special
protection area) designated areas.

The Department of Economic Opportunity (the "Department ") hereby issues its Finial °
Order, pursuant to § 380.05(6) and § 380.0552(9), Fla. Stat. (2011), approving a land
development regulation adopted by Monroe County Ordinance No. 004 -2012 (the "Ordinance ").
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The Florida Keys Area is designated by § 380.0552, Fla. Stat., as an area of
critical state concern. Monroe County is a local government within the Florida Keys Area.
2. The Ordinance was adopted by the County on March 21, 2012. The Department
received the Ordinance for review on April 11, 2012.
3. The Ordinance amends Section 138 -50 of the County's land development
regulations, to specify the documents required for an exemption from the nonresidential rate of
growth ordinance and provide guidance for a sufficiency review of documents by the Planning
Director to establish that a particular project is not subject to the nonresidential rate of growth
ordinance.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
4. The Department is required to approve or reject land development regulations that
are adopted by any local government in an area of critical state concern. § 380.05(6) and (11)
and § 380.0552(9), Fla. Stat.

5. "Land development regulations" include local zoning, subdivision, building, and
other regulations controlling the development of land. § 380.031(8), Fla. Stat. The regulations
adopted by the Ordinance are land development regulations.
6. All land development regulations enacted, amended, or rescinded within an area
of critical state concern must be consistent with the principles for guiding development for that
area. § 380.05(6) and § 380.0552(9), Fla. Stat. The Principles for Guiding Development for the
Florida Keys Area of Critical State Concern are set forth in § 380.0552(7), Fla. Stat.
7. The Ordinance is consistent with the Principles for Guiding Development as a
whole, and specifically furthers the following Principles:
(a) Strengthening local government capabilities for managing land use and
development so that local government is able to achieve these objectives without
continuing the area of critical state concern designation.
(g) Protecting the historical heritage of the Florida Keys.
(n) Protecting the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the Florida Keys
and maintaining the Florida Keys as a unique Florida resource.
8. The Ordinance is consistent with Objective 101.3 and Policy 101.3.4 of the
Monroe County Comprehensive Plan.
WHEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that Monroe County Ordinance No. 004 -2012 is found
