AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
A public hearing to consider a resolution by the BOCC to amend Resolution #332-2012, the Planning & Environmental
Resources Fee Schedule to:
• Establish a new fee for a letter of understanding related only to identifying the status of a nonconforming use in that
such a letter requires less staff time to prepare than a typical letter of understanding; and
• Repeal any other fee schedules inconsistent herewith.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
The Board adopted a text amendment to the Monroe County Land Development Code establishing a registry for lawful
nonconforming uses. The text amendment was memorialized by Ordinance #005-2013. The process requires a written
determination by the planning director, which may be accomplished by a letter of understanding.
As part of the current fee schedule, the Board established a fee waiver for map amendment applications in which property
owners can provide satisfactory evidence that currently existing lawful uses on sites were deemed nonconforming by
final adoption by the Land Use District Map and/or Future Land Use Map. The wavier process was first memorialized by
Resolution #127-2012 and last memorialized by Resolution #332-2012 and requires a letter of understanding.
PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION:
The BOCC last amended the Planning & Environmental Resources Fee Schedule at a public hearing on October
17, 2012. The fee schedule was memorialized as Resolution #332-2012.
