Both Future Land Use Map amendments were sent to the State for review and assigned amendment number 15-lACSC by the State Land Planning Agency. On March 20, 2015, the State Land Planning Agency issued its Objections, Recommendations, and Comments (ORC) report on the proposed amendment. The ORC report (attached) includes an objection to Resolution 375-2014 (Rockland/Big Coppitt map amendment) regarding the request to change the Future Land Use designation to MC for the Big Coppitt parcel. Specifically, the State Land Planning Agency stated the entire amendment lies within the Military Installation Area of Impact (MIAI); that amendment does not provide assurance that any future residential development on this property will be for affordable housing, as stated by the applicant; and that there is an executed settlement agreement which requires a restoration/reclamation which may be impediments to the proposed uses. The applicants would like additional time to address the State's objections and to propose a site specific policy. The State Land Planning Agency did not have an objection to Resolution 374-2015 (Key Largo map amendment); however, the applicant would to propose a site specific policy to address the requirements Comprehensive Plan Policy 101.4.20 (discouragement policy). Pursuant to Policy 101.4.20, prior to adoption of the proposed FLUM amendment by the BOCC, the applicant must mitigate for the proposed increase in allocated residential density, based on one of the following options: a. Donation of 4.4 acres of non -scarified land designated Tier I or Tier III -A SPA located within the Upper Keys Subarea; b. Donation 12 non -scarified IS Lots designated Tier I or Tier III -A located within the Upper Keys Subarea; or c. Donation 12 IS lots designated Tier III for affordable housing within the Upper Keys Subarea, Section 163.3184(4), F.S., the `State Coordinated Review Process' for proposed comprehensive plan amendments requires: • the State Land Planning Agency to review proposed amendments and issue an Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC) Report within 60 days; and • upon receipt of the ORC report, the local government has 180 days to address the ORC Report and adopt the amendments, adopt the amendments with changes or not adopt the amendments; or • request an extension to the 180 day timeframe from state land planning agency and any affected person that provided comments on the amendment. Based on the issuance of the ORC report on March 20, 2015, the current adoption deadline for the map amendment package is September 16, 2015. Staff is recommending requesting up to an additional 180 days (approx. March 15, 2016) to allow the applicants to develop the proposed site specific policies.

Murley, Executive Director, South Fiorida Regional Planning Council OBJECTIONS RECOMMENDATIONS AND COMMENTS REPORT MONROE COUNTY 15-1ACSC PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT I. Consistency with Chapter 163, Part II and Chapter 380, Part 1 The Department has the following objections and comments to the proposed comprehensive plan amendment: Objection: Resolution 375-2014 proposes to amend the future land use map for five parcels on Rockland Key totaling 44.42 acres. The County proposes to change the land use designation on four of the parcels from Industrial to Commercial. The Commercial designation does not allow for residential and the Department has no objections for this portion of the amendment. However, the fifth parcel (RE# 00120940-000100) is 14.83 acres and proposes to amendment the land use designation from industrial (12.33 acres) and Mixed Use/Commercial Fishing (2.5 acres) to Mixed Use Commercial for a total of 14.83 acres. The potential increase in residential development potential is 27 dwelling units or 221 rooms and a reduction of 204,013 square feet of nonresidential. The potential increase on the 14.83 acre parcel is 56 dwelling units or 221 rooms and a reduction of 75,119 square feet of nonresidential. The entire amendment lies within the Military Installation Area of Impact (MIAI). The fifth parcel is within the 65-69 Day --Night Average Noise Level (DNL). Comprehensive Plan policy 108.2.6 adopts MIAI Land Use Table. The table contains "permitted uses allowed", "allowed with restrictions", "uses generally incompatible (allowed with exceptions)", and "uses not compatible and should be prohibited" for each DNL category. Within the 65-69 DNL, residential uses are listed as "uses generally incompatible (allowed with exceptions)" Some uses are allowed with restrictions. A note for this category states: **Uses Generally Incompatible (allowed with exceptions). The land use and related structures are generally incompatible. Note 1 a) Although local conditions regarding the need for housing may require residential use in these Zones, residential use is discouraged in DNL 65-69 and strongly discouraged in DNL 70-74. The absence of viable alternative development options should be determined and an evaluation should be conducted locally prior to local approvals indicating that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these Zones. The applicant makes the argument that housing in Monroe County is in short supply, the cost of that housing is too high and therefore, this amendment adds to the available affordable housing by re -designating 14.83 acres to mixed use which can accommodate a multi -family affordable housing development project of significant size. However, there is nothing in the amendment which provides assurance that any future residential development on this property will be for affordable housing. In fact, the proposed designation of Mixed Use Commercial would allow a total of 69 dwelling units or 221 hotel rooms. Monroe County future land use map contains a potential buildout of 10,258 dwelling units on the available vacant lands, of these units 51% (5,289 units of density) are located in the lower keys. There may be a shortage of available housing, but there is no shortage of vacant lots with density for housing. Based on data submitted by the County, the County has 8,168 vacant parcels and 1,970 building permit allocations which leaves a deficit of allocations of 6,198 parcels. The County failed to establish that in the absence of viable alternative development, that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these Zones. Previous Agreement - The land has been mined extensively and contain haul roads and bridges between dredged pools. There is an executed settlement agreement which requires a restored littoral zone and a setback 150 feet from the water line of the dredged pool on the portion of the fifth parcel that runs north/south. These reclamation requirements may be impediments to the proposed uses. Additional dialogue needs to occur between the legal sections of Monroe County and the Department of Economic Opportunity regarding the effect of the agreement. Site Suitability - The portion of the fifth parcel which extends east/west has an elevation that ranges from -2 to 2 feet while the portion of the property which extends north/south has an elevation as high as 4 feet. The east/west portion of the fifth parcel is located in the Velocity Zone (VE) with required elevations for future development ranging from 12-16 feet. That portion of the property is also in Coastal Barrier Resource System (CBRS) "Otherwise Protected Area" (OPA). The CBRS Buffer Zone extends even further south. Federal flood insurance is not available in the OPA for structures that are newly built or substantially improved on or after November 16, 1991. The fifth parcel is also entirely within the Coastal High Hazard Area (CHHA) and therefore inconsistent with Monroe County comprehensive plan policy 101.14.1, which states, "Monroe County shall discourage developments proposed within the Coastal High Hazard Area (CHHA)." The fifth parcel is very narrow and development of the area adjacent to the mine pools could have negative water quality impacts on the tidally influenced mining pool and is inconsistent with the Principles for Guiding Development in the Florida Keys Area. Authority: Sections 163.3177(2); 163.3177 (4)(a); 163.3177(6)(a)1.f.; 163.3178 (2)(b); 380.0552(7)(a), (b), (e), (h) Florida Statutes (F.S.) Recommendations: Do not adopt the proposed amendment. Revise the amendment to allow uses other than residential. Coordinate with Department staff to evaluate the effect of the restoration plans included in the Stipulated Settlement Agreement for the fifth parcel.

Per discussion with Ms. Rebecca Jetton on February 5, 2015, Naval Air Station Key West is not in favor of any increased residential density in high noise areas 65 DNL and above. Per Naval instruction, residential use is discouraged in DNL 65-69 and strongly discouraged in DNL 70-74. The absence of viable alternative development options should be determined and an evaluation should be conducted locally prior to local approvals indicating that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these zones. Where the community determines that these uses must be allowed, measures to achieve an outdoor to indoor Noise Level Reduction {NLR) of at least 25 dB in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30 dB in DNL 70-74 should be incorporated into building codes and be in individual approvals; for transient housing a NLR of at least 35 dB should be incorporated in DNL 75-79_ we look forward to continued coordination on this project.

I am asking for your assistance with the Rockland Key Commercial Retail Center Overlay Project which if allowed to proceed, will be the largest project in the counties history, quoting a county source. Located on Rockland Key, on approximately 33 acres, it sits before the Monroe County Commission for approval and was submitted in December 2014. I am forming a group opposed to a project of this enormity that will not only effect the surrounding area it will have far reaching consequences damaging the economic survival of the Keys and Key West as well as the Environmental and aesthetic impact. Can you please help the group I am starting of like minded citizens? There has to be a way to halt this especially with our designation of Critical State Concern. Are you aware of this?
