the ordinances, they are sent to IAA for consideration

III. ISSUES
As shown in the summary tables, only� parcels � s are recommended to have their
Fier designation changed.
Planning and EnvironmenU Resources staff re
rnxnendations differ from that of
the TDRC for two (2) parcels. For parcels
001 7 1 0-000000 and 001 7440-
000000 located between Central Avenue and .
umho Limbo Avenue in the Bay
Maven subdivision in Ivey Largo, the TDRC
recommended a Fier designation of
Tier III -A (SPA) based on the habitat connectivity.
However, staff believes these
parcels should maintain their Fier III designation ba
f.
sed the criteria contained
in §130
130-130 (c) (2) a (3) Property lines of developed
a ROGO allocation award or an issued building
t., located within a Land Use District that allows only one unit
Figure 1. Parcels 00517180-0000 and 00517440-000000
As seen in Figure 1 above, the pry lines of the
property developed panels
surrounding the subject parcels would break the connectivity
ctivity of the hammock�
thereby reducing the intact hammock to fragment of less than 0.35 acres.

The tier boundaries are designated using aerial photography,

b. Lands required to provide an undeveloped buffer .
P p to feet in depth, �f
indicated as appropriate by special species studies between natural areas and
development to reduce secondary impacts. Canals or roadways, oadways, depending on
width, may form a boundary that removes the need fo
r the buffer or reduces its
depth.
c. Lands designated for acquisition by public agencies for
