PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM WORDING: A public hearing to consider approval of an ordinance by the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners amending the 2030 Comprehensive Plan to create Goal 109, Objective 109.1, Policies 109.1.1, 109.1.2, 109.1.3, 109.1.4, 109.1.5, 109.1.6 to establish a Hurricane Irma Recovery Process to provide for the development of workforce housing for a period of 2 years, defining the term workforce housing, establishing workforce housing shall be a permitted use in certain land use districts, providing density bonuses for workforce housing, amending the development review procedures and amendment procedures to facilitate workforce housing, as recommended by the BOCC (File 2018-010) ITEM BACKGROUND: The Monroe County Planning & Environmental Resources Department is proposing amendments to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, as directed by the BOCC on -November 29, 2017, to create Goal 109, Objective 109.1, Policies 109.1.1, 109.1.2, 109.1.3, 109.1.4, 109.1.5, 109.1.6 to establish a Hurricane Irma Recovery process to provide for the development of workforce housing for a period of 2 years, defining the term workforce housing, establishing workforce housing shall be a permitted use in certain land use districts, providing density bonuses for workforce housing, amending the development review procedures and amendment procedures to facilitate workforce housing. The need to protect and preserve an adequate inventory of affordable/workforce accessible housing is a continual, as well as, a growing challenge in the County, particularly after the impacts of Hurricane Irma. Staff, in coordination with Commission Carruthers, discussed the potential impediments to the development of workforce housing as well as some potential solutions to the creation of this housing and assist in the recovery of the Florida Keys. On November 29, 2017, proposed comprehensive plan amendments to incentivize and prioritize the provision of workforce housing after the significant damage caused by Hurricane Irma were presented to the BOCC and public. The BOCC provided direction to staff on the proposed amendments and directed staff to start processing the amendments to incentivize workforce housing and assist in the rebuilding and recovery of Monroe County. Community Meeting and Public Participation In accordance with LDC Section 102-159(b)(3), a Community Meeting for the Comprehensive Plan text amendments was held on January 9, 2018 in Marathon and on June 26, 2018 in Marathon for the Land Development Code text amendments. Based on public input at the community meetings, staff is proposing an alternative option which would require applicants to apply for a workforce overlay district in order to be eligible for workforce housing incentives. Development Review Committee and Public Input The Development Review Committee considered the proposed amendment at a regular meeting(s) on January 30, 2018, and August 21, 2018, and received public input. Public Input and Comment Staff, the Planning Commission, and the BOCC has/have received numerous a -mails and letters regarding the proposed amendment from individuals, as well as, community organizations and groups. The feedback received has been reviewed and considered by staff as the proposed amendment is moved through the review process. In response to received public comments, additional options and language has been developed by staff. PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TEXT AMENDMENTS See the 11x17 attachment (Exhibit 1) with the drafted proposed text amendments, PC recommendations and staff revised language. ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENT Community Meetings There are several applications that require(d) community meetings. For comprehensive plan and land development code text amendment applications, community meetings are required a minimum of three (3) months prior to the first required public hearing (Planning Commission). Major conditional use, development agreements, and map amendment applications require a community meeting no more than 120 days, but no less than 45 days, prior to the first required public hearing (Planning Commission). During the amendment process, the proposed time -frame for community meetings was proposed to be reduced. However, the reduction of the maximum time -frame that a community meeting may occur prior to a public hearing may have unintended consequences. Additionally, the original amendment language imposed a new "cap" on the time -frame for community meetings for text amendments. Staff does not recommend imposing this new time limit, as the current code does not include a maximum, which would not work in the applicant's favor. If the BOCC wishes to maintain the community meetings required for certain applications, staff recommends maintaining the maximum time -frame at 120 days prior to first required public hearing. Shortening the maximum time -frame to 60 days may not leave an applicant and staff adequate time to address issues identified at the community meeting while meeting public notice requirements and internal deadlines for staff reports. Military Installation Area of Impact (MIAI) During review of the proposed text amendment, the Planning Commission recommended the proposed text amendment be limited to Stock Island and Rockland Key. As such, and in accordance with Comprehensive Plan Policy 108.1.1, the County transmitted the proposed change to the comprehensive plan to the commanding officer of Naval Air Station Key West, which if approved, would affect the intensity, density, or use of the land adjacent to or in close proximity to the Naval Air Station Key West (within the Military Installation Area of Impact (MIAI)). Key Terms: DNL = Day -night average sound level NLR — Noise -Level Reduction = NLR (outdoor to indoor) to be achieved through incorporation of noise attenuation unto the design and construction of the structure On January 25, 2019, the County received a response from the Commanding Officer (Exhibit 2) stating the following: Pursuant to the 2018 Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) Study, Naval Air Station. Key West does not support any increased residential density in high noise areas 65DNL and above. Per Table 7-1 of the 2018 AICUZ Study (Enclosure 1), 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 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 25dB in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30dB in DNL 70-74 should be incorporated into building codes and be in individual approvals; for transient housing a NLR of at least 35dB should be incorporated in DNL 75-79. As can be seen on the map series (Exhibits 3 and 4), and according to the Navy's AICUZ Land -Use Compatibility Recommendations, residential uses are discouraged in the 65-69 DNL and strongly discouraged in the 70-74 DNL, and are recommended to be located in other areas unless a study is undertaken identifying the need for housing. Household units are listed by the Navy as not compatible and should be prohibited in the 75-79 DNL.

A "Yes" or a "No" designation for compatible land use is to be used only for general comparison Within each, uses exist where further evaluation may be needed in each category as to whether it is clearly compatible, normally compatible, or not compatible due to the variation of densities of people and structures In order to assist installations and local governments, general suggestions as to Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) are provided as a guide to densities in some categories In general, land -use restrictions which limit commercial, services, or industrial buildings or structure occupants to 25 per acre in APZ 1 and 50 per acre in APZ 2 are the range of occupancy levels, including employees, considered to be low density. Outside events should normally be limited to assemblies of that more than 25 people per acre in APZ 1, and Maximum (MAX) assemblies of 50 people per acre in APZ 2. 2B. 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 approvals indicating that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these zones. b. Where the community determines that residential uses must be allowed, measures to achieve outdoor to indoor NLR of at least 25 d8 in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30 dB 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. c. Normal permanent construction can be expected to provide an NLR of 20 dB; thus, the reduction requirements are often stated as 5, 10, or 15 dB over standard construction and normally oswme mechanical ventilation, upgraded sound transmission class ratings In windows and doors and closed windows year round. Additional consideration should be given to modifying NLR levels baud on peak noise levels or vibrations. d. NLR criteria will not eliminate outdoor raise problems. However, building location and site planning, des;gn, and use of berms and barriers can help miligale outdoor exposure, particularly from ground level sources. Measures that reduce noise at a site should be used wherever practical in preference to measures which only protect interior spaces. If the County desires to allow for increased residential density in areas where residential use is discouraged or strongly discouraged, the County would need to demonstrate that other viable development options do not exist by conducting an evaluation that indicates that a demonstrated community need for the for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these zones. Monroe County has already undertaken numerous studies, including its most recent Evaluation and Appraisal Report, and the 2015 Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report (Exhibit 5) which identifies the need for affordable housing in the lower Florida Keys. The proposed text amendment could assist in addressing this need further. As can be seen in the attached maps (Exhibits 4 and 6), there is a limited supply of affordable housing in the Lower Keys, and there is limited land available for potential new, larger scale affordable housing development. The proposed text amendment would result in a potential increase of affordable residential dwelling units within the 70-74 DNL and the 65-69 DNL; however, any household units developed would require specific design measures to achieve an indoor NLR of 25 dB within the 65-69 DNL and an indoor NLR of 30dB within the 70-74 DNL. Maximum Density The table below shows a comparison of the number of affordable/workforce housing dwelling units that could be built on currently vacant land, within the respective FLUM/Zoning districts, based on current regulations and the proposed density increase in Goal 109. For more detailed analysis of development potential by island/traffic segment, see Exhibit 10 — Island/Segment Analysis and Geographic Recommendations. CURRENT MAX MAX DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPMENT DIFFERENCE POTENTIAL POTENTIALWITH (Affordable (Affordable GOAL 109 Housing Dwelling Housing Dwelling (Affordable Units) Units) Housing Dwelling Units) 7,042 10,563 +3,521 Income Categories The Planning Commission recommended limiting density bonuses to projects that propose at least 50% low and/or very low income categories. Based on public feedback during the hearing process, staff recommends the income category requirements be maintained as discussed at the November 2017 meeting: density bonuses limited to project that are rental for very low, low, and median income. Big Pine Key and No Name Key Parcels within Big Pine Key and No Name Key are not eligible for Goal 109. Duck Key Parcels within Duck Key are not eligible for Goal 109 based on its Development of Regional Impact status. Ocean Reef Parcels within Ocean Reef are not eligible for Goal 109. Tier applicability Goal 109 is only applicable to parcels or lots that are designated as Tier III. Comprehensive Plan amendments may be proposed by the Board of County Commissioners, the Planning Commission, the Director of Planning, or by the owner or other person having a property interest in property to be affected by a proposed amendment. The Director of Planning shall review and process applications as they are received and pass them onto the Development Review Committee and to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission shall hold at least one public hearing. The Planning Commission shall review the application, the reports and recommendations of the Department of Planning & Environmental Resources and the Development Review Committee and the testimony given at the public hearing. The Planning Commission shall submit its recommendations and findings to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). The BOCC holds a public hearing to consider the transmittal of the proposed comprehensive plan amendment, and considers the staff report, staff recommendation, and the testimony given at the public hearing. The BOCC may or may not recommend transmittal to the State Land Planning Agency. The amendment is transmitted to State Land Planning Agency, which then reviews the proposal and issues an Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC) Report. Upon receipt of the ORC report, the County has 180 days to adopt the amendments, adopt the amendments with changes, or not adopt the amendment. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: On November 29, 2017, proposed comprehensive plan amendments to incentivize and prioritize the provision of workforce housing after the significant damage caused by Hurricane Irma was presented to the BOCC and to the public. The BOCC provided direction to staff on the proposed amendments and directed staff to start processing the amendments to incentivize workforce housing and assist in the rebuilding and recovery of Monroe County. CONTRACT/AGREEMENT CHANGES: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the BOCC consider adoption of Goal 109, with the following changes, as presented in this staff report, the Amendment Table, and the Segment Analysis: 1. Change the community meeting deadlines to the recommended shorter time -frame, however, allow a maximum time -frame of 120 days for map amendments, major conditional uses and development agreements. Do not impose a maximum time -frame for text amendments. 2. Limit the density bonuses to projects that are rental only, for very low, low, and median income, as discussed at the November 2017 meeting. 3. Limit the density bonuses in Goal 109 to the following islands/segments, based on MIAI, traffic, and Employment analysis: a. Saddlebunch/Shark Key (segment 4) b. Sugarloaf (segment 5) c.

BOCC SR 02.12.2019 File 2018-010 Page 1 of 15 1 II. BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2 3 The Monroe County Mayor declared a State of Local Emergency on September 5, 2017 due to 4 Hurricane Irma, a "threat of danger to the populace inhabiting Monroe County" and that the County 5 "may require expedient action in order to protect the health, safety and welfare of the community." 6 7 At 9:10 a.m. on September 10, 2017, Hurricane Irma made landfall near Cudjoe Key as a Category 8 4 Hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 130 mph. Significant damage has occurred to the 9 housing stock which is largely the lower cost housing options to the members of the workforce. 10 11 Monroe County faces the quadruple impact of high land values, land limited by geographic and 12 environmental features, housing supply limited by controlled growth (the permit allocation systems) 13 and a tourism economy with a prevalence of lower paying service -sector employment. 14 15 The housing affordability problem of Monroe County has widespread economic impacts, including 16 a growing recognition of the important link between an adequate affordable housing supply and 17 economic growth. Many of the business sectors in the Keys, including professional services, retail 18 trade, tourism and health care, find it increasingly difficult to attract and maintain workers. 19 Affordable housing has posed and continues to pose a major challenge for local governments, public 20 agencies and the private sector in the Keys. The service and retail industries generate high demand 21 for affordable housing from low income earning workers, while the limited land area and linear 22 geography of the Keys severely limit the potential supply and locations of housing in the County. 23 24 Furthermore, unlike other areas in the State, working families cannot find affordable housing nearby. 5 As a result, a severe imbalance exists between supply and demand, resulting in escalating housing _6 prices. This imbalance is worsened by a number of other contributing factors, including: 27 • strong demand for second homes which reduces the supply of housing for permanent 28 residents; 29 • conversion of permanent housing for transient use as vacation rentals which reduces the 30 housing supply and increases affordable housing demand; 31 • high construction costs due to transportation costs of goods, limited labor market, and 32 caprock conditions; 33 • higher costs due to regulations and insurance (building standards are among the most rigorous 34 in the State); 35 • limited permit allocations due to hurricane evacuation standards, habitat protection and watdr 36 quality objectives; and 37 • limited non-profit and private sector capacity for funding assistance and housing production. 38 39 The need to protect and preserve an adequate inventory of affordable/workforce accessible housing 40 is a continual, as well as, a growing challenge in the County, particularly after the impacts of 41 Hurricane Irma. 42 43 Staff, in coordination with Commission Carruthers, discussed the potential impediments to the 44 development of workforce housing as well as some potential solutions to the creation of this housing 45 and assist in the recovery of the Florida Keys. On November 29, 2017, proposed comprehensive plan 46 amendments to incentivize and prioritize the provision of workforce housing after the significant 47 damage caused by Hurricane Irma was presented to the BOCC and the public. The BOCC provided BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 2 of 15 File 2018-010 direction to staff on the proposed amendments and directed staff to start processing the amendments to incentivize workforce housing and assist in the rebuilding and recovery of Monroe County. 4 Community Meeting and Public Participation 5 In accordance with LDC Section 102-159(b)(3), a Community Meeting for the Comprehensive Plan 6 text amendments was held on January 9, 2018 in Marathon and on June 26, 2018 in Marathon for 7 the Land Development Code text amendments. Based on public input at the community meetings, 8 staff is proposing an alternative option which would require applicants to apply for a workforce 9 overlay district in order to be eligible for workforce housing incentives. 10 11 Development Review Committee and Public Input 12 The Development Review Committee considered the proposed amendment at a regular meeting on 13 January 30, 2018 and August 21, 2018, and received public input. 14 15 Public Input and Comment 16 Staff, the Planning Commission and the BOCC has received numerous emails and letters regarding 17 the proposed amendment from individuals, as well as, community organizations and groups. The 18 table below provides a summary of concerns identified by the public. The feedback received has 19 been reviewed and considered by Staff as the proposed amendment is moved through the review 20 process. In response to received public comments, additional options and language has been 21 developed by Staff. 22 Identified Concerns # of times referenced in public comment Oppose increased density 75 Traffic 69 Workforce housing in the cities 56 Retain Protest Procedure 46 Changes community character 43 Enforce vacation rentals 30 Lower Keys is low -density 28 Retain citizen input through community meetings 27 Follow existing Livable Communike s Plans 21 "Do/Build the right thing in the right place 9 Concern about 1300 units 9 Goal 109 not needed in Key Largo 9 Impact to infrastructure/sewer/water/schools 9 Negatively affects property values 7 Require inclusionary housing for hotels/commercial 5 Retain Planning Commission approval for affordable housing projects 20 units or more 5 Increased Crime 4 Lack of public transit / high commuting costs for housing occupants 4 Enforce Affordable Housing deed restrictions 3 BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 3 of 15 File 2018-010 Impact to water quality 3 Lack of compliance with development approvals (currently)3 Lack of shopping opportunities (supermarkets, conveniences) in the Lower Keys for residents of affordable housing3 Use of military land for housing 3 Concern about out of county developers 2 Effective Date: Limit length; require approval by one date/substantial completion by another 2 Address Tourism impact to Affordable Housing 1 Concern about definition requiring 70% of income to come from Monroe County for a federally funded project 1 Concern about quality of housing I Considerspecies focus and buffer areas 1 Impact of low-income housing on tax revenue of County 1 Increased garbage and litter 1 Lack of data to support increased density 1 Less market -rate development 1 No density increase for sub areas and overlay areas unless explicitly authorized 1 Parking issues I Toll/surtax for tourist to fund Affordable Housing I III. PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TEXT AMENDMENTS 5 See the 11x17 attachment (Exhibit 1) with the drafted proposed text amendments, PC 6 recommendations and staff revised language. 8 IV. ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENT 9 10 Community Meetings 11 There are several applications that required community meetings. For comprehensive plan and land 12 development code text amendment applications, community meetings are required a minimum of three 13 (3) months prior to the first required public hearing (Planning Commission). Major conditional use, 14 development agreements and map amendment applications require a community meeting no more than 15 120 days, but no less than 45 days, prior to the first required public hearing (Planning Commission). 16 During the amendment process, the proposed timeframe for community meetings was proposed to be 17 reduced. However, the reduction of the maximum timeframe that a community meeting may occur prior 18 to a public hearing may have unintended consequences. Additionally, the original amendment language 19 imposed a new "cap" on the timeframe for community meetings for text amendments. Staff does not 20 recommend imposing this new time limit, as the current code does not include a maximum, which would 21 not work in the applicant's favor. 22 23 If the BOCC wishes to maintain the community meetings required for certain applications, Staff 14 recommends maintaining the maximum timeframe at 120 days prior to first required public hearing. BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 4 of 15 File 2018-010 I Shortening the maximum timeframe to 60 days may not leave an applicant and staff adequate time to 2 address issues identified at the community meeting while meeting public notice requirements and 3 internal deadlines for staff reports. 4 5 Military Installation Area of Impact (MMI) 6 During review of the proposed text amendment, the Planning Commission recommended the proposed 7 text amendment be limited to Stock Island and Rockland Key. As such, and in accordance with 8 Comprehensive Plan Policy 108.1.1, the County transmitted the proposed change to the comprehensive 9 plan to the commanding officer of Naval Air Station Key West, which if approved, would affect the 10 intensity, density, or use of the land adjacent to or in close proximity to the Naval Air Station Key West 11 (within the Military Installation Area of Impact (MIAI)). 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 Key Terms: ■ DNL = Day -night average sound level ■ NLR —Noise-Level Reduction = NLR (outdoor to indoor) to be achieved through incorporation of noise attenuation unto the design and construction of the structure On January 25, 2019, the County received a response from the Commanding Officer (Exhibit 2) stating the following: Pursuant to the 2018 Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) Studv. Naval Air Station, Key West does not support any increased residential density in high noise areas 65DNL and above. Per Table 7-1 of the 2018 AICUZ Study (Enclosure 1), 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 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 25dB in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30dB in DNL 70-74 should be incorporated into building codes and be in individual approvals; for transient housing a NLR of at least 35dB should be incorporated in DNL 75-79. As can be seen on the map series (Exhibits 3 and 4), and according to the Navy's AICUZ Land -Use Compatibility Recommendations, residential uses are discouraged in the 65-69 DNL and strongly discouraged in the 70-74 DNL, and are recommended to be located in other areas unless a study is undertaken identifying the need for housing. Household units are listed by the Navy as not compatible and should be prohibited in the 75-79 DNL.

A "Yes" or a "No" designation for compatible land use is to be used only far general comparison. Within each, uses exist where further evaluation may be needed in each category as to whether it is clearly compatible, normally compatible, or not compatible due to the variation of densities of people and structures. In order to assist installations and local governments, general suggestions as to Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) are provided as a guide to densities in some categories. in general, land -use restrictions which Ilmh commercial, services, or industrial buildings or structure occupants to 25 per acre in APZ 1 and 50 per acre in APZ 2 are the range of occupancy levels, including employees, considered to be low density. Outside events should normally be limited to assemblies of nor more than 25 people per acre in APZ I, and Maximum (MAX) assemblies of 50 people per acre in APZ 2. 28. a. Although local conditions regarding the need for housing may requite 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 approvals indicating that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these zones. b. Where the community determines that residential uses must be allowed, measures to achieve outdoor to indoor NLR of at least 25 dB in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30 dB 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. c. Normal permanent construction can be expected to provide an NLR of 20 dB; thus, the reduction requirements are often stated as 5, 10, or 15 dB over standard construction and normally assume mechanical ventilation, upgraded sound transmission class ratings in windows and doors and closed windows year round. Additional consideration should be given to modifying NLR levels based on peak noise levels or vibrations. d. NLR criteria will not eliminate outdoor noise problems. However, building location and site planning, design, and use of berms and barriers can help mitigate outdoor exposure, particularly from ground level sources. Measures that reduce noise at a site should be used wherever practical in preference to measures which only protect interior 4 spaces. 5 6 If the County desires to allow for increased residential density in areas where residential use is 7 discouraged or strongly discouraged, the County would need to demonstrate that other viable 8 development options do not exist by conducting an evaluation that indicates that a demonstrated 9 community need for the for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these 10 zones. 11 12 Monroe County has already undertaken numerous studies, including its most recent Evaluation and 13 Appraisal Report, and the 2015 Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report (Exhibit 5) which 14 identifies the need for affordable housing in the lower Florida Keys. The proposed text amendment could 15 assist in addressing this need further. As can be seen in the attached maps (Exhibits 4 and 6), there is a 16 limited supply of affordable housing in the Lower Keys, and limited land available for potential new 17 larger scale affordable housing development. 18 19 The proposed text amendment would result in a potential increase of affordable residential dwelling units 20 within the 70-74 DNL and the 65-69 DNL; however, any household units developed would require 21 specific design measures to achieve an indoor NLR of 25 dB within the 65-69 DNL and an indoor NLR 22 of 30dB within the 70-74 DNL. 23 24 BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 6 of 15 File 2018-010 I Maximum Density 2 The table below shows a comparison of the number of affordable/workforce housing dwelling units 3 that could be built on currently vacant land, within the respective FLUM/Zoning districts, based on 4 current regulations and the proposed density increase in Goal 109.

This objective recognizes the finite limits of the carrying capacity of the natural and 17 man-made systems in the Florida Keys to continually accommodate further development and the 18 need for the significant expansion of the public acquisition of vacant developable lands and 19 development rights to equitably balance the rights and expectations of property owners. This 20 includes the recognition that Monroe County must ensure public safety through the ability to 21 maintain a 24-hour hurricane evacuation clearance time. 22 BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 10 of 15 File 2018-010 I GOAL 601: Monroe County shall adopt programs and policies to facilitate access by residents 2 to adequate and affordable housing that is safe, decent, and structurally sound, and that meets the 3 needs of the population based on type, tenure characteristics, unit size and individual preferences. 4 5 Policy 601.1.4: All affordable housing projects which receive development benefits from 6 Monroe County, including but not limited to ROGO allocation award(s) reserved for affordable 7 housing, maximum net density, or donations of land, shall be required to maintain the project as 8 affordable for a period of 99 years pursuant to deed restrictions or other mechanisms specified in 9 the Land Development Code, and administered by Monroe County or the Monroe County 10 Housing Authority. 11 12 Policy 601.1.8: Monroe County shall allocate at least 20% of the annual ROGO allocation, or as 13 may be established by the State of Florida, pursuant to Administration Commission Rules, to 14 affordable housing units, as specified in Policy 101.3.3. Affordable housing eligible for this 15 separate allocation must meet the criteria established in the Land Development Code. 16 17 Policy 601.1.9: Monroe County shall maintain land development regulations which may include 18 density bonuses, impact fee waiver programs, and other possible regulations to encourage 19 affordable housing 20 21 Objective 601.2: Monroe County shall adopt programs and policies to encourage housing of 22 various types, sizes and price ranges to meet the demands of current and future residents 23 24 Objective 601.3: Monroe County shall continue implementation efforts to eliminate substandard 15 housing and to preserve, conserve and enhance the existing housing stock, including historic 26 structures and sites. 27 28 Policy 601.3.1: 29 Monroe County shall coordinate with other County agencies to monitor housing conditions. 30 Standards for evaluation of the structural condition of the housing stock are summarized below: 31 Sound: Most housing units in this category are in good condition and have no visible defects. 32 However, some structures with slight defects are also included. 33 34 Deteriorating: A housing unit in this category needs more repair than would be provided in 35 the course of regular maintenance, such as repainting. A housing unit is classified as 36 deteriorating when its deficiencies indicate a lack of proper upkeep. 37 38 Dilapidated (Substandard): A housing unit in this category indicates that the unit can no 39 longer provide safe and adequate shelter or is of inadequate original construction including 40 being constructed below the minimum required elevation by FEMA or the County's 41 Floodplain Regulations. 42 43 Policy 601.3.2: The County Code Compliance Office and Building Department will enforce 44 building code regulations and County ordinances governing the structural condition of the 45 housing stock, to ensure the provision of safe, decent and sanitary housing and stabilization of 46 residential neighborhoods. 47 BOCC SR 02.12.2019 Page 11 of 15 File 2018-010 1 2 3 4 6 7 B.

The maximum net density standards in Policy 1015.25 for affordable housing can be applied to the development of workforce housing without the use of TDRs. The County Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) recommended the BOCC change the Code to redefine affordable housing and make sure all affordable ROGOs are used for `workforce housing." The BOCC agreed and directed staff to amend the Land Development Code to create a new definition for "workforce housing" and Goal 109, which will be considered by the BOCC within the next couple of months. Definitions proposed by the AHAC: Workforce means individuals or families who are gainfully employed supplying goods and/or services to Monroe County residents or visitors. Workforce Housing means dwelling units for those who derive at least 70% of their income as members of the Workforce in Monroe County and who meet the affordable housing income categories of the Monroe County Code. These proposed definitions are problematic if the County wants to continue to support private developers of affordable housing via participation and set aside of Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Projects. Based on FHFC BOCC i ansmittal guidance, if we adopt these definitions, the projects would not meet "Housing Assistance Act of 2008, the Internal Revenue Code §42(g)." Similarly, the County's existing requirement of "employee housing" in certain zoning Hearing - 02.12.2019 districts is a current regulation that may cause issues regarding LIHTC funding.

We have reviewed the proposed amendment, and appreciate Monroe County's critical need for affordable workforce housing. Pursuant to the 2018 Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) Study, Naval Air Station, Key West does not support any increased residential density in high noise areas 65DNL and above. Per Table 7-1 of the 2018 AICUZ Study (Enclosure 1), 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 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 25dB in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30dB in DNL 70-74 should be incorporated into building codes and be in individual approvals; for transient housing a NLR of at least 35dB should be incorporated in DNL 75-79. We look forward to continue coordination on the proposed text amendment. My point of contact is my Community Planning Liaison Officer, Ms. Ashley Monnier, she can be reached at COMM: (305) 293-2633 or via e-mail: ashley.monnier(@navy.mil. Sincerely, B. J.

Notes: 1. A "Yes" or a "No" designation for compatible land use is to be used only for general comparison. Within each, uses exist where further evaluation may be needed in each category as to whether it is clearly compatible, normally compatible, or not compatible due to the variation of densities of people and structures. In order to assist installations and local governments, general suggestions as to Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) are provided as a guide to densities in sortie categories. In general, land -use restrictions which limit commercial, services, or industrial buildings or structure occupants to 25 per acre in APZ 1 and 50 per acre in APZ 2 are the range of occupancy levels, including employees, considered to be low density. Outside events should normally be limited to assemblies of not more than 25 people per acre in APZ 1, and Maximum (MAX) assemblies of 50 people per acre in APZ 2. 2. The suggested maximum density for detached single-family housing is 1 to 2 dwelling units per acre (Du/Ac). In a Planned Unit Development (PUD) of single-family detached units where clustered housing development results in large open areas, this density could possibly be increased, provided the amount of surface area covered by structures does not exceed 20 % of the PUD total area. PUD encourages clustered development that leaves large open areas. 3. Other factors to be considered: Labor intensity, structural coverage, explosive characteristics, air pollution, electronic interference with aircraft, height of structures, and potential glare to pilots. 4. Maximum FAR of 0.56 in APZ 2. 5. Maximum FAR of 0.28 in APZ 1 and 0.56 in APZ 2. 6. No structures (except airfield lighting), buildings, or aboveground utility/communications lines should normally be located in clear zone areas on or off the installation. The clear zone is subject to severe restrictions. See UFC 3-260-01 "Airfield and Heliport Planning & Design" dated 10 November 2001 for specific design details. 7. No passenger terminals and no major aboveground transmission lines in APZ 1. 8. Within SLUCM Code 52, Max FARs for lumber yards (SLUCM Code 521) are 0.20 in APZ 1 and 0.40 in APZ 2. For hardware/paint and farm equipment stores, SLUCM Code 525, the Max FARs are 0.12 in APZ 1 and 0.24 in APZ 2. 9. Maximum FAR of 0.16 in APZ 2. 10. A shopping center is an integrated group of commercial establishments that is planned, developed, owned, or managed as a unit. Shopping center types include strip, neighborhood, community, regional, and super regional facilities anchored by small businesses, supermarket or drug store, discount retailer, department store, or several department stores, respectively. Included in this category are such uses as big box discount and electronics superstores. The Max recommended FAR for SLUCM 53 should be applied to the gross leasable area of the shopping center rather than attempting to use other recommended FARs under "Retail" or "Trade." 1 1. Maximum FAR of 0.24 in APZ 2. 12. Maximum FAR of 0.14 in APZ 1 and 0.28 in APZ 2. 7.

Facilities must be low intensity and provide no tot lots, etc Facilities such as clubhouses, meeting places, auditoriums, large classes, etc., are not recommended. 22. Includes livestock grazing but excludes feedlots and intensive animal husbandry. Activities that attract concentrations of birds creating a hazard to aircraft operations should be excluded. 23. Includes feedlots and intensive animal husbandry. 24. Maximum FAR of 0.28 in APZ 1 and 0.56 in APZ 2. No activity that produces smoke or glare or involves explosives. 25. Lumber and timber products removed due to establishment, expansion, or maintenance of clear zones will be disposed of in accordance with appropriate DoD Natural Resources Instructions. 26. Controlled hunting and fishing may be permitted for the purpose of wildlife management. 27. Naturally occurring water features (e.g., rivers, lakes, streams, wetlands) are compatible. 28. 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 olternative development options should be determined and on evaluation should be conducted locally prior to approvals indicating that a demonstrated community need for the residential use would not be met if development were prohibited in these zones. b. Where the community determines that residential uses must be allowed, measures to achieve outdoor to indoor NLR of at least 25 d8 in DNL 65-69 and NLR of 30 dB 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. c. Normal permanent construction can be expected to provide an NLR of 20 dB; thus, the reduction requirements are often stated as 5, 10, or 15 dB over standard construction and normally assume mechanical ventilation, upgraded sound transmission class ratings in windows and doors and closed windows year round. Additional consideration should be given to modifying NLR levels based on peak noise levels or vibrations. d. NLR criteria will not eliminate outdoor noise problems. However, building location and site planning, design, and use of berms and barriers can help mitigate outdoor exposure, particularly from ground level sources. Measures that reduce noise at a site should be used wherever practical in preference to measures which only protect interior spaces. 29. Measures to achieve an NLR of 25 must be incorporated into the design and construction of portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas, or where the normal noise level is low. 30. Measures to achieve an NLR of 30 must be incorporated into the design and construction of portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas, or where tho normal noise level is low. 31. Measures to achieve an NLR of 35 must be Incorporated into the design and construction of portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas, or where the normal noise level is low. 32. If the project or proposed development is noise sensitive, use indicated NLR; if not, land use is compatible without NLR. 33, Land use compatible provided special sound reinforcement systems are installed. 34. Residential buildings require an NLR of 25. 35. Residential buildings require an NLR of 30. 36. Residential buildings not permitted. 7.

Land -use not recommended, but if the community decides use is necessary, hearing protection devices should be worn. Key: Y (Yes) = Land use and related structures compatible without restrictions. N (No) = Land use and related structures are not compatible and should be prohibited. Y, _ (Yes with restrictions) The land use and related structures are generally compatible. However, see notes indicated by superscript. N• _ (No with exceptions) The land use and related structures are generally incompatible. However, see notes indicated by superscript. SLUCM = Standard Land Use Coding Manual, U.S. Department of Transportation. NA = Not Applicable (no data available for that category). FAR = (Floor Area Ratio) A floor area ratio is the ratio between the square feet of floor area of the building and the site area. It is customarily used to measure non- residential intensities. Du/Ac = (Dwelling Units per Acre) = This metric is customarily used to measure residential densities. DNL = Day -night average sound level. Ldn = Mathematical symbol for DNL. CNEL = Community Noise Equivalent Level (normally within a very small decibel difference of DNL). NLR = (Noise -Level Reduction) = NLR (outdoor to indoor) to be achieved through incorporation of noise attenuation into the design and construction of the structure. 25, 30, or 35 = The numbers refer to NLR levels. Land use and related structures generally compatible however, measures to achieve NLR of 25, 30, or 35 must be incorporated into design and construction of structure. However, measures to achieve on overall noise reduction do not necessarily solve noise difficulties outside the structure and additional evaluation is warranted. Also, see notes indicated by superscripts where they appear with one of these numbers. 7.

In August 2014 the Monroe County Commission approved a stakeholder assessment effort, to be conducted by the FCRC Consensus Center at Florida State University (Consensus Center), to solicit perspectives and ideas on workforce housing challenges and on whether a county -wide consensus building effort should be convened to address the complex issues surrounding workforce housing in the Florida Keys. This assessment report sets out the context for addressing workforce housing issues and used interviews, meetings and review of data and documents to assess stakeholder perspectives on the County's workforce housing challenges. These perspectives include county, city, regional, state and federal government levels, housing and tourist development leaders in Monroe County, the business and tourist community and non- profit community and civic organizations. Based on this stakeholder input, the assessment report summarizes the themes, concerns, issues, and interests that stakeholders believe ought to be considered in addressing workforce housing needs in Monroe County. (See below) The workforce housing affordability crisis in the Florida Keys identified by the Monroe County Commission in 2014 is real. "Cost -burdened" households pay more than 30% of income for rent or mortgage costs. In 2013, 51% (or 16,849) of Monroe County households pay more than 30% of income for housing while statewide that figure is 43%. More than half of Monroe County renters are cost burdened (8,350 of 14,002) while about 45% of Monroe County homeowners are cost burdened (8,499 of the 18,936). In November 2014 the United Way of Florida released its report, ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed: Study of Financial Hardship, which indicates that nearly half of all Monroe County households (14,221of 29,241) live above the federal poverty line but still struggle to afford basic expenses including housing, child care, food, transportation and health care.' The Report also evaluates community conditions for each of Florida's counties using a weighted "Economic Viability Dashboard" in three core areas using a scale of 1 (worst) to 100 (best).' Monroe County's results area as follows: Core Areas Rating Grade Housing Affordability (40% 14 of 100 Poor job Opportunities 40% 67 of 100 Good Community Support 20% 48 of 100 Poor The Report was initially developed in New Jersey and now five other states including Florida, California, Michigan, Indiana and Connecticut, have used the model and developed reports in 2014. https://www.frbatlanta.org/commdev/publications/partnersupdate/2015/01/study-sheds-fight-on-working families-in-florida 2 The Index provides the means to compare counties in Florida and to see changes over time. The Housing affordability area includes three key indicators including: the Household Survival Budget (quantifying the cost of the housing, child care, food, health care, transportation); health insurance; and housing burden. The Job Opportunities area includes three key indicators including: Income Distribution; Employment Rate; and New Hire Wages. The Community Support area includes three key indicators: Violent crime rate; the annual payroll of human services nonprofits per capita; and access to good basic health care. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 The findings of all of several recent reports on Monroe County's current housing situation confirm that there is a significant and growing shortage of affordable workforce housing, both rental and ownership. In addition there exists a policy gap in that affordable housing for the working and middle classes is largely left to individual municipalities and counties to deal with. Over 75 persons participated in the interviews and meetings and identified a range of workforce housing issues. While some offered perspectives from the same sector, they live and work in different parts of the Keys and the ideas they offer are not necessarily the same as others sharing that perspective. However, across the various perspectives the following emerged as six common themes regarding key workforce housing issues: 1. A Shared vision of success for Workforce Housing in Monroe County 2. Take Action on Workforce Housing 3. Build upon the past affordable housing studies and reports 4. Defining the problem first based on data 5. Seek a balanced package of options as there is no single strategy that will solve the workforce housing crisis 6. View housing as community infrastructure, like transportation and water supply Issues generally identified as important from most perspectives included: 1. Addressing the ROGO system and workforce housing, including transfers and fractional ROGOs 2. Density and livable workforce housing 3. Relaxing height restrictions in light of Federal flood insurance changes and to create more workforce housing 4. Monroe Housing Authority role in workforce housing 5. Transportation and its relationship to and role in workforce housing 6. Workforce Housing site identification and audit of publicly owned property. 7. Creation of new workforce housing units that are both affordable and livable with development incentives and public private partnerships 8. Preservation and maintenance of existing workforce housing and incentives to preserve workforce housing 9. Related workforce issues due to high cost of housing (insurance, childcare, food insecurity etc.) 10. County, City and state affordable housing policies and regulations including length of deed restrictions 11. Explore and expand funding sources to expand workforce housing in Monroe County The Stakeholder Assessment sought to identify how different stakeholders viewed the challenges of workforce housing facing Monroe County and its residents. The over 50 issues and ideas identified and summarized from the many interviews and meetings, help to shed light on the complexity of the issues and on the healthy diversity of views on how to best address the challenges even among those sharing the same stakeholder perspective. The assessment interviews were conducted with the understanding that the themes and ideas identified would be shared with the Commission and inform any committee that would engage in subsequent consensus building on workforce housing solutions. It was also understood that individual views would not be attributed but the related themes perspectives would be summarized. The report provides input from following perspectives: County Government; City Government; Education; Development; Lodging/Hospitality/Tourism; Business; Non Profit; and Military. Over 50 workforce housing ideas and :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 4 issues were identified in the Assessment from different perspectives in the following categories: Overall 1.

Focus all 3-tier oronerties on WH I Workforce Housin-- & the Education Sector I Engage the school system as largest employer Improve teacher housing needs data Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 Monroe County staff has gathered detailed baseline data that included an inventory of affordable and workforce housing projects completed over the past 2 decades in Monroe County, along with the public incentives that were made to assist in the housing development. In the course of the assessment interviews and meetings, various studies and data sources were identified on best practices from other jurisdictions and ideas developed or considered but not implemented by previous affordable housing task forces. Among the range of stakeholders interviewed, all expressed the need for a focused and comprehensive county -wide workforce housing dialogue that involved those with a stake in the outcome. Many believed that such a committee should develop a package of consensus recommendations, informed by data and the range of stakeholder and public perspectives, that can provide for both short and longer term actions for the Board of County Commission's consideration. While some of those interviewed remained skeptical that there will be sufficient "political will" to implement the Committee's recommendations as has been the case in the past, many believed that this was an urgent and timely issue for the County to address in light of hotel redevelopment and the economic upturn. In the Fall of 2014, following the initiation of this Assessment, the Commission re -appointed members to the existing Affordable Housing Advisory Committee and with the thought of convening and charging them with addressing workforce housing issues and providing the County Commission with its recommendations. The reconvened committee would review this assessment report and other data as it addressed its charge. A workforce housing committee, ad hoc or otherwise, appointed and charged by the County Commission to address workforce housing issues in the Florida Keys was explored in the assessment interviews. A significant number of those interviewed applauded the County Commission's action in re -purposing the existing Affordable Housing Advisory Committee to focus, at least in the short term, on workforce housing. It was suggested that this approach could provide representation from each District in the County, offer workforce housing perspectives from the public, private and nonprofit sectors, and minimize confusion and any duplication of effort that an ad hoc workforce housing committee might create. It was also pointed out that this charge would be consistent with the Committee's current mission to address affordable housing opportunities in Monroe County for both "residents and workforce." The Commission should review the current Committee appointments to ensure that a balance of workforce housing stakeholder perspectives are included in its membership. If the Commission charges the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee to develop consensus recommendations on workforce housing actions for consideration by the Monroe County BOCC, most stakeholders interviewed suggested there should be a sufficient range of stakeholder perspectives represented and participating in the consensus building. This would allow the Committee to develop informed workforce housing consensus findings and recommendations that stakeholders might support and the County Commission could act upon. There is a great deal of public and stakeholder interest in the workforce housing issues the Committee will take up. The membership requirements, as set forth in both Florida statute and the Monroe County Resolution, do not reference representation of the municipalities in the County, the military, the School Board and perhaps other organizations impacted by workforce housing policies and programs and with a stake in contributing to solutions to improve the availability of workforce housing in the Florida Keys. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 6 Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 201 Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 201 The format for the Committee meetings should encourage constructive public and stakeholder input. The Commission might consider charging the Committee with establishing an engagement strategy to involve a broader range of stakeholders in their development of findings and recommendations. This might be accomplished through opportunities for public input during their own meetings, as well as through Committee sponsored advisory workgroups, joint workshops with municipal taskforces and city commissions, workshops at key moments in the development of options and recommendations, online surveys and other techniques. It was observed by many that an advisory committee developing recommendations on workforce housing will require dedicated staff, including legal and planning expertise, and facilitation support for the Committee to do its work expeditiously. This is because of the complexity of the charge, the intense public interest in the issue, the linkages with other issues and programs and activities in the public, private and non-profit sectors, and the desire for timely actions to address the current workforce housing challenges. The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners should review this Assessment Report and charge the Affordable Housing Committee to focus its efforts in the coming year on workforce housing. With a charge from the County Commission, the Committee should establish its procedures and approach and a schedule for meetings that would permit it to deliver back to the BOCC its workforce housing recommendations by mid-2016. The Committee should consider: • Developing a shared vision of success; • Jointly defining the workforce problems faced in the Florida Keys; • Reviewing the range of issues and options identified in previous studies; • Reviewing the experience and lessons learned with successful workforce housing projects developed in the Keys to date; • Reviewing this Stakeholder Assessment Report; and • Developing a package of consensus findings and recommended solutions for consideration by the Monroe County Board of County Commission. This stakeholder assessment report confirms that there is wide agreement that Monroe County is facing a significant and growing workforce housing crisis with shortages for both affordable rental and ownership units. There is also agreement that no single strategy will solve the workforce housing crisis in Monroe County. Instead the challenge ahead is to craft a balanced package of targeted options that have been refined through discussion and debate and that can serve as a consensus framework for addressing and implementing solutions. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .-Assessment Report, April 2015 9 MONROE COUNTY WORKFORCE HOUSING STAKEHOLDER ASSESSMENT REPORT I.

In August 2014 the Monroe County Commission approved a stakeholder assessment effort, to be conducted by the FCRC Consensus Center at Florida State University (Consensus Center), to solicit perspectives and ideas on workforce housing challenges and on whether a county -wide consensus building effort should be convened to address the complex issues surrounding workforce housing in the Florida Keys. The 2005 Harvard report, "Strengthening the Workforce and Communities through Housing Solutions" suggests, solutions to the workforce housing challenge require a broad - based, proactive approach.' This stakeholder assessment engaged a broad range of public, private and non profit stakeholders to clarify substantive issues involved, options to consider, information needed and process and coordination issues. This assessment report sets out the context for addressing workforce housing issues and used interviews, meetings and review of data and documents to assess stakeholder perspectives on the County's workforce housing challenges. These perspectives include county, city, regional, state and federal government levels, housing and tourist development leaders in Monroe County, the business and tourist community and non-profit community and civic organizations. Based on this stakeholder input, the assessment report summarized the themes, concerns, issues, and interests that stakeholders believe ought to be considered in addressing workforce housing needs in Monroe County. The assessment seeks to address the following questions: 1. What are the range of affordable workforce housing and related issues from the perspectives of County, City, State and Federal housing and tourist development leaders, the business and tourist community and the non-profit community and civic organizations and residents? 2. What are the linkages with development and land use issues, transportation mobility? 3. What interests, organizations and individuals should participate in a stakeholder county -wide committee process to develop consensus recommendations on affordable workforce housing issues in Monroe County? How Should the County convene a stakeholder committee to develop recommendations on workforce housing in Monroe County and its cities? 4. What is needed in terms of base line current data on workforce housing programs in s http://bit.ly/lkcpnfm, "By the time a workforce housing affordability problem begins to affect the bottom line, the forces that contribute to high housing costs have long been in place and are difficult to reverse. For the housing and business communities to forestall such an outcome, they must establish a working relationship characterized by respect, trust, and an awareness of each other's interests. They must have access to information about the causes of the affordability problem and data that demonstrate its effects." :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 10 Monroe County? What information and data on best practices should be considered in any subsequent stakeholder consensus building process? II. WORKFORCE HOUSING IN MONROE COUNTY- CONTEXT The workforce housing affordability crisis in the Florida Keys identified by the Monroe County Commission in 2014 is real. "Cost -burdened" households pay more than 30% of income for rent or mortgage costs. In 2013, 51% (or 16,849) of Monroe County households pay more than 30% of income for housing while statewide that figure is 43%. More than half of Monroe County renters are cost burdened (8,350 of 14,002) while about 45% of Monroe County homeowners are cost burdened (8,499 of the 18,936). In November 2014 the United Way of Florida released its report, ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed: Study of Financial Hardship, which indicates that nearly half of all Monroe County households (14,221of 29,241) live above the federal poverty line but still struggle to afford basic expenses including housing, child care, food, transportation and health care.' The Report also evaluates community conditions for each Florida county using a weighted "Economic Viability Dashboard" in three core areas employing a scale of 1 (worst) to 100 (best).`' Monroe County's results area as follows: Core Areas Rating Grade Housing Affordability 40% 14 of 100 Poor job Opportunities 40% 67 of 100 Good Community Support 20% 48 of 100 Poor 4 Workforce housing can refer to any form of housing, including ownership of single or multi -family homes, as well as occupation of rental units. Workforce housing is generally understood to mean affordable housing for households with earned income that is insufficient to secure quality housing in reasonable proximity to the workplace. The term "workforce" is meant to connote those who are gainfully employed, a group of people who are not typically understood to be the target of affordable housing programs. Workforce housing, then, implies an altered or expanded understanding of affordable housing. Workforce housing is commonly targeted at "essential workers" in a community i.e. police officers, firemen, teachers, nurses, medical personnel. However resort communities generally define "essential" more broadly to include service workers, as they often are characterized by high real estate costs and a high number of low -paying service jobs essential to the local tourism economy. 5 The Report was initially developed in New Jersey and now five other states including Florida, California, Michigan, Indiana and Connecticut, have used the model and developed reports in 2014. https://wxvw.frbatlanta.org/commdev/publications/partnersupdate/2015/01 /stud sheds-light-on-working- families-in-florida 6 The Index provides the means to compare counties in Florida and to see changes over time. The Housing .Affordability area includes three key indicators including: the Household Survival Budget (quantifying the cost of the housing, child care, food, health care, transportation); health insurance; and housing burden. The Job Opportunities area includes three key indicators including: Income Distribution; Employment Rate; and New Hire Wages. The Community Support area includes three key indicators: Violent crime rate; the annual payroll of human services nonprofits per capita; and .Access to good basic health care. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report,April 2015 11 KEY FACTS AND ALICE STATISTICS FOR MONROE COUNTY (From 1he,1ffJCE Florida Report: Study of Financial Hardship, Fall, 2014, Appendix H) Big Coppitt Key /Monroe County Population Households Poverty % ALICE % Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 2016 833 12% 35% 53% 9% 55% 72% Big Pine Ke /Monroe Coun Population Households Poverty % ALICE Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy- ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 3777 1619 10% 35% 56% 4% 44% 42% Key Lar o/Monroe County Population Households Poverty % ALICE % Above ALICF_ Threshold % Unemploy ment Rate 1 Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 11409 4517 151% 38% 47% 9% 44% 57% Key West Population Households Poverl) °'o I ALICE Above ALICE Threshold % I Unemploy- I ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 24870 9322 9% 35% 56% 4% 44% 68% Lower Ke s/Monroe County Population Households Poverty % ALICE Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy- ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 10394 4314 8% 23% 62% 5% 42% 56% Marathon Population Households Poverty % ALICE % AboveALICE, Threshold % Unemploy- ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 8389 3371 14% 41% 45% 9% 40% 65% Middle Keys/Monroe County Population Households Poverty 4io ALICE Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy - ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 9731 4068 13% 40% 47% 10% 420/4 640/4 North Ke Largo/ onroe County Population Households Poverty % ALICE % Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy- ment Rate "ouszrtg Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 1166 510 11% 20% 69% 4% 36% 25% Stock Island/ Monroe Coun Population Households Poverty % ALICE % Above ALICE Threshold % Unemploy- ment Rate Housing Burden over 35% Owner Housing Burden over 35% Renter 3736 1111 14% 62% 24% 8% 53% 69% Tavernier/ Monroe County Population Households Poi erty ° o ILICE, °'o I Above ALICF.

In addition there exists a policy gap in that affordable housing for the working and middle classes is largely left to individual municipalities and counties to deal with. In Monroe County an hourly wage needed to afford a two -bedroom FMR is $26.27/hour.' In order not to pay more than 30% of family income on housing, a household must earn $4,553 monthly or $54,640 annually. The findings of all of the reports on Monroe County's current housing situation confirm that there is a significant and growing shortage of affordable workforce housing, both rental and ownership. A significant portion of the current workforce housing in Monroe County is rental and there is a large rental housing deficit. As is the case throughout Florida, there has been increase in the demand for rental housing in Florida following the great recession and subsequent housing crisis, particularly among younger households and families with children. Statewide, the percent of households renting increased from 29.4 percent in 2007 to 34.4 percent in 2012 (American Community Survey, 2012; Shimberg Center for Housing Studies, University of Florida, 2013)." The Shimberg Center has found that affordable rental shortages are most pronounced in southeast Florida. (SCHS, 2013). In an Affordable Housing Solutions Vlhite Paper (October 2014)R Donald Craig, Planning Director for the City of Key West, projected a deficit of amore than 6,500 units of affordable housing units in the City and characterized the affordability challenge as follows: "The City's Comprehensive Plan identified the City of Key West median household income as $52,004 while the average annual wages earned by a worker in the City are approximately $37,844 indicating that by standard guidelines for mortgage lending at the median level, a home should cost no more than $166,012, or three times the median income. This is clearly inconsistent with actual cost of housing in the City, when the Key West Board of Realtors reports that at the end of July 2014 the median sales prices of 162 single family homes sold in the preceding 7 months was $630,000 and the median sales prices for Condo/Townhouses was $368,000. Clearly persons and families making the median income or average wage cannot afford for -sale housing, even if such were being built. As to rental housing, the situation is not better. Even though dated and most assuredly higher, the 2010 reported median gross monthly rent in the City was $1,359. In order to be affordable to the average wage earner in the City, the monthly rent should be no more than $946. Rent such as this is not available in the City at this point and time and results in workers sharing housing in increasing numbers, or paying 40-50% of their income for housing." 7 "Out of Reach 2014: Florida", http://nlihc.org/oor/2014/FL, National Low Income Housing Coalition 8 .Affordable Housing White Paper- Donald Craig, MCP Director of Planning & Nicole Malo .AICP,Planner, City of Key West: http://Iegistarl.granicus.com/Key\Vest/meetings/2014/10/2491 _A_ City _Commission 14-10- 07 Meeting .Agenda Full Detail.pdf :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 13 The 2015 Home Matters Report from the Florida Housing Coalition' confirms what other reports have found regarding rapid increases in rents for vacant units on the market while Florida's home ownership has declined steadily since its peak in 2007. Tighter mortgage lending standards, rising mortgage interest rates and fees, and a high percentage of cash sales have squeezed many low and moderate income homebuyers out of the market. There currently exists a policy gap to fund workforce housing development. Federal programs through HUD or state governments are generally targeted towards low-income programs designed for people that make less than 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). The Low -Income Housing Tax Credit, which mainly spurs development of rental properties, is an example of this. Affordable housing for the working and middle classes has been largely left to individual municipalities and counties to deal with. III. WORKFORCE HOUSING CHALLENGES- STAKEHOLDER IDEAS AND PERSPECTIVES A. Critical Affordable Workforce Housing Common Themes The over 75 persons participating in the interviews and meetings identified a range of workforce housing issues. While some offered a perspective from the same sector, they lived and worked in different parts of the Keys and the ideas they offered were not necessarily the same as others sharing that perspective. However, across the various perspectives the following six common themes regarding key workforce housing issues emerged: 1. A Shared vision of success for Workforce Housing in Monroe County will be important to guide and gauge the menu of strategies and actions needed to address workforce housing. 2. Action orientation. All acknowledge the workforce housing context is complex and challenging but needs immediate focus and attention and that addressing gaps in workforce housing throughout the Florida Keys will require immediate and longer term actions, even if those interviewed had differences in emphasis on those options and actions. 3. Build upon the past affordable housing studies and reports. Many agreed with the following statement, "The comprehensive studies, recommendations and published works on the topic do not need to be repeated. The metrics of this problem are well known and documented. The dynamics and facts have changed little over the years." 4. Define the problem(s) first. There needs to be a careful effort to define the shared workforce housing problem facing Monroe County in a multifaceted way (different levels and needs of workers, rental vs. ownership, different locations in the Keys) and then based on data and knowledge, move to identify, craft and implement "solutions. "http://issuu.com/flhousing/docs/home_matters report 02.2015_final :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 14 5. No single strategy. There does not appear to be a single strategy to pursue but rather a menu of combined strategies to address the workforce housing challenges in the Florida Keys. Any committee should seek to develop a balanced package of both short term and longer -term strategies and actions that are targeted to addressing the needs of different sections of the workforce and to different parts of Monroe County. 6. Housing as community infrastructure. Given its importance to the local economy, the County should consider workforce housing as it considers other critical infrastructure such as transportation and water supply. Workforce housing should receive the policy, planning and financial attention that other areas of local infrastructure receive. The County should seek to better integrate the housing element with other plan elements such as the future land use, public facilities, transportation and capital improvements. B. Critical Affordable Workforce Housing Common Issues Issues generally identified as important to address from most perspectives included: 1. Addressing the ROGO system and workforce housing, including transfers and fractional ROGOs 2. Density and livable workforce housing 3. Relaxing height restrictions in light of Federal flood insurance changes and to create more workforce housing 4. Strengthen Monroe County Housing Authority's role in workforce housing 5. Address transportation and its relationship to and role in workforce housing 6. Update Monroe County's workforce housing site identification and audit of publicly owned property 7. Create new workforce housing units that are both affordable and livable with development incentives and public private partnerships 8. Preserve and maintain existing workforce housing and provide incentives to preserve workforce housing 9. Address related workforce issues due to high cost of housing (insurance, childcare, food insecurity etc.) 10. Review and consider changes in the County, City and state affordable housing policies and regulations including length of deed restrictions :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .-Assessment Report, April 2015 15 11. Explore and expand funding sources to expand workforce housing in Monroe County C. Stakeholder Ideas and Perspectives on Workforce Housing Matrix The Stakeholder Assessment sought to identify how different stakeholder perspectives viewed the challenges of workforce housing facing Monroe County and its residents. The over 50 issues and ideas identified and summarized from the many interviews and meetings, help to shed light on the complexity of the issues and on the healthy diversity of views on how to best address the challenges. The assessment interviews were conducted with the understanding that the themes and ideas identified would be shared with the Commission and inform any committee that would engage in subsequent consensus building on workforce housing solutions. It was also understood that individual views would not be attributed but related perspectives would be summarized. Workforce housing ideas and issues identified in the Assessment from different perspectives and included issues displayed in the matrix below in the following nine categories: 1.

Stakeholder Ideas and Perspectives on Workforce Housing Over 75 persons participated in the interviews and meetings and identified a range of workforce housing issues. Below is a compilation summary of the input received from individuals representing different sectors (public, private and non-profit) and residing in different parts of Monroe County. 1. County Government- Ideas and Perspectives Build on affordable housing work to date • We need to understand and build on what's been learned from various task forces and studies and apply to the current workforce housing situation in the Keys. Review what incentives are in ordinances and how have they worked. How do we retool to work better. What about inclusionary zoning? What about density bonuses and density waivers? What they are how they work. How to retool to work better. What doesn't work. • Come up to speed on what was done previously so we know where things were when walked away. No silver bullet, no easy fix • We need a balanced menu of options. Acknowledge the broad range of different of solution and levels of housing. • There is no easy fix, no one way to handle this problem. Workforce Housing Shortages • We are short over 6000 units and under ROGO we will get 700 over the next 10 years. That does not come close to solving the problem. • The Affordable Housing Committee should focus initially on workforce. • We are short 6,800 units of work- force housing. This is a crisis and housing is the most expensive item on the County's list. • Housing affordability in the Keys includes insurance, the cost of food and the cost of daycare as well as housing. Rental workforce housing focus • Our most critical need is in lower income and service ranges and we should focus especially on rentals for this segment of the workforce. • 98% of the residents of county -run public housing is workforce housing for working individuals (with the exception of the elderly and disabled). Rent is capped to 30% of household income and the remaining amount is subsidized. Windstorm and Flood Insurance Rates • The current windstorm and flood insurance situation is huge affecting all residents not just lower income. • If you can't pay cash, you need insurance to secure a bank loan. • FIRM- Fair insurance rates for Monroe- is engaged in grass roots advocacy work. • The Federally subsidized program flood insurance program was amended and will set a new basis for Florida insurance rates, setting the stage for immediate dramatic increases flood insurance rates for both residential and commercial properties. County growth management and affordable housing. 0 Should affordable housing be part of the County growth management function which is built more to slow growth or placed elsewhere with good staff support to allow it to be more active in identifying parcels and developers in getting the job done? Empower and support the Affordable Housing Committee • The Committee needs to consider a menu of recommended consensus workforce housing solutions as a package for the County Commission to consider and implement. Protect and support the Committee's affordable housing staff. • In the past considering the complex incentives and transactions for developers to build affordable housing has opened staff to attack by those opposing development in general. It has been a very public and vitriolic situation where staff have been personally attacked. Site Identification. • We should identify every piece of county property that is vacant, demolished, big enough for affordable housing and zoned properly. Preserve and maintain affordable units. • We've lost some affordable housing that was bought at low rates and sold at market rate and restrictions were ignored. We have to pay attention so games are not played with this and we lose these units. Mixed Use. • We should encourage this but it has not caught on except in Key West. • We should explore mixed use and mixed income levels vs. low income property projects makes for better self policing and safer and more livable communities. • The only exception to this is tax credit properties where everyone is low income with no one is over 60% AMI. Address Management on Tax Credit Properties after 15 years. • For the first 15 years, the developer is liable and responsible to maintain the tax credits and the housing. After the 15`h year property management tends to deteriorate as less cash is devoted to upkeep. Consider allowing Land Authority bed tax funds for construction. • Currently they can only use the funding for land acquisition. • Consider changing the Tourist Development Council (TDC) law to allow those dollars to be used for affordable housing development. Height Restrictions. • Should be open to relaxing this where this could produce more workforce housing. • Consider handling this on a site specific basis. • There are areas in town where building higher would not block views. The City of Key West would have the capacity to implement this although it would first have to be approved by referendum. Explore Micro Housing. • This is being implemented in cities such as New York. It might be applied in cities in the Keys to cut down on the commute time. • Note that 1—bedroom units are the shortest in supply for the public housing and tend to be occupied longer, usually by elderly and disabled. Enforce Housing Codes. Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, .April 2015 23 • Enforce housing codes in terms of illegal multiple occupancy. ROGO • ROGO allocation system for permits early on effectively eliminated affordable housing construction. Three things need to come together for successful workforce housing: funding, available land and allocations. However these have not coincided. Years ago funding was available but land and allocation were not. Hospitality Industry and Workforce Housing. • The industry should step up and participate in efforts to provide more affordable workforce housing. Some are, others should. • Some wonder why County taxes would be used to subsidize the hotels' workforce housing. Hotels should do more. • We should collect data on what hoteliers are doing in providing workforce housing for their employees. Local Dedicated Funding Source. • We need a local dedicated funding source (sales tax, "sin" tax, etc.) that can support the construction of workforce housing not just land acquisition. Address Sadowski Trust Fund Donor Inequity. • Monroe County contributes 60% and gets back 8%. This should be addressed when funding resumes. AddressNIMBY • Historically there has been community reactions to the old low income projects. This may continue to be an issue. Related Affordability Issues • Insurance and Day Care can figure in challenges for workers in terms of costs on tight family budgets. • Many work 2-3 service jobs to be able to afford housing and other costs such as food. • The "situationally" homeless are part of the workforce housing puzzle in Monroe County. Hurricanes and Workforce Housing. • In the last hurricanes in the Keys transportation from Miami stopped and restaurant and lodging businesses in the Upper Keys had to shut their doors for lack of employees. 2. Municipal Government- Ideas and Perspectives Target the Levels of Workforce to Serve • We need to define more clearly what kind(s) of workforce housing we want for the community. Hourly wage earners may always be renters in the Florida Keys. There is a shortage of decent, reasonably priced, available housing, especially one -bedroom rentals. Engage Employers • We need the businesses in Monroe County with the different types of employees (hourly, salaried) to be at the table and part of the solution. Hotels have the highest occupancy rate and the most profits of any place in the country. They have begun to help with workforce housing and they should continue to do :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 24 more. Vacation rentals • We need to address this challenging issue and its impact on workforce housing in the current marketplace. Height restrictions • Ease height restrictions where there aren't view issues to allow for more workforce housing. Mixed use. • Seek more mixed uses with the school board and other public properties. Land Acquisition • Focus land acquisition on workforce housing properties. Focus on Redevelopment • Key West is nearing build out and most construction is redevelopment and remodeling. Loss of Deed Restrictions • Address and audit the Loss of Deed Restrictions. ("Of the total 1,089 affordable units, 223 are expected to have their deed restrictions expire, or have expired by the end of 2015." (See Appendix #6). "No net loss" of existing workforce housing • Amend the Comprehensive Plan's housing element so that future development will result in "no net loss" of existing workforce/affordable rental housing for households earning 80% or less than the area mean income. High land values limit tax credit funded affordable units • Difficult to both finance and construct units at any level except at the 60% of median through heavily subsidized tax credit funding. Lack of reasonably priced land has meant few of these projects have been built. • In the City of Key West, its annual allocation of 91 affordable housing BPAS units. Re -purpose land owned by local government • Land owned by the county should be re -purposed for affordable and workforce housing. Consider additional funding sources • A tax on every alcoholic beverage sold or a 1% real estate transfer tax could generate funding for workforce housing. Relying upon the Land Authority funds won't be enough. Development Plan and Funding for Workforce Housing • We need to figure out how to put the land authority/Housing Authority and bed tax money together and form development plan for affordable housing. ROGO AH Allocations • Each year in City of Key West there are 90 affordable housing ROGO allocations with the City able to borrow up to 10 years ahead to create more affordable housing. • Focus all tier-3 properties on workforce housing if it doesn't raise a property rights issue. Adopt lease form • Cities should consider adopting a lease form with the public sector owning the :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 2015 25 underlying land. Support non -profits and their work on affordable and workforce housing • Provide funding for nonprofit affordable housing entities. 3. State Government- Ideas and Perspectives FFHC Set Aside for Monroe County • Work to preserve the Monroe County set aside Florida Finance Housing Corporation competitive applications for affordable housing tax credit Sadowski Fund • Sadowski Fund affordable housing funding has not been available for affordable housing since 2006. Work to bring that funding back. Tourist Development Tax and Workforce Housing • Tourist Development Tax should support the building of workforce housing. Funds go to the Monroe County Land Authority ($4 million) and Key West ($8 million). • Consider changing the tourism bed tax statute to allow for supporting the construction of workforce housing. Combination of Issues • In the Keys need to consider four factors: hurricane evacuation; environmental protection of land and species; affordable housing; and water supply. • During the economic downturn there was less interest in building AH. Rising Rents • Rising rents represent a big challenge for workforce housing and strategies to address this should be considered. NIMBY issues and Workforce Housing • Monroe County needs to address the NIMBY issue that is a barrier to workforce housing. Protect Navy Noise and Crash Zone but look for workforce housing opportunities • Work with the Navy to protect noise and crash zones while looking for opportunities to build workforce housing. Support Deed Restrictions • Support the use of 99 year leases for $1- Affordable forever. • Assess current state of enforcement of deed restricted land and work to extend leases to 99 years. Identify and Aggregate Workforce Housing Parcels • More could be done to identify parcels of land and aggregate them and analyze opportunities for workforce housing on surplus lands. • There may be opportunities for duplexes and quadaplexes on scarified small lots for rental units. Height Restrictions • Consider relaxing height restrictions especially in the center of the islands with existing tall buildings. This would provide additional workforce housing FEMA Flood Maps :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 26 • Address the impacts of the new FEMA flood maps on Monroe County and workforce housing. Homeless • Homeless are an important issue to address in a tourist economy. How many of the homeless are there because of lack of affordable housing in the Keys? ROGO System • ROGO system has evolved and the modeling is scientifically and statistically defensible in terms of hurricane evacuation time. • There are affordable housing ROGOs that have not been used. • The most recent annual travel study that shows how long takes to get over the 22 segments of the U.S. 1 highway, indicates a segment starting to fail in Islamorada. Engage the Hotel and Hospitality Industry • Hoteliers should be more engaged in the workforce housing discussion. Convened a recent meeting for hoteliers in Islamorada to discuss this issue and only 3 came. Enforcement of Housing Ordinances • Need to address and enforce the ordinances regarding unlawful modifications of homes and overcrowding of residences. Mobile Homes and RV Parks and Workforce Housing • Need to address the question of the role of mobile/RV parks in supplying workforce housing and the impact of conversions of these parks on availability of affordable housing. 4. Education Sector Ideas and Perspectives Target the kind of housing needed • Education has the same levels of workforce housing needs as other sectors. • Have to focus on the target population in terms of addressing gaps in workforce housing, e.g. Teachers, support and administrative staff, service industry workers, etc. Partnerships for workforce housing • Interested and exploring partnerships for workforce housing development on school board owned property. Recruitment and Retention • Recruiting and retaining teachers and professors in the Keys is a very challenging problem due to the relatively high cost of housing. • Retention continues to be a problem and accessible and affordable workforce housing is part of it. There is a huge organizational cost to retrain. Student Enrollment Stable • The current context in terms of student enrollment is stable but not increasing, having decreased during the economic downturn. Single vs. Family Teachers • "We have lot of young employees with over 70 new teachers." Young single teachers may rent space with roommate(s), but teachers with family is another matter as there is very little family friendly workforce housing. • Many teachers in Upper Keys commute to Miami Dade vs. secure housing in ;Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 27 Monroe County. • In Key West and the lower keys, the property values are the highest and present a challenge for young teachers and teachers with families. Involve the Public School System at the Workforce Housing Table • Since the Public School system one of the larger employers in the County in terms of teachers, support and administrative staff, there should be place at a workforce housing table for this perspective. Increasing reliability of teacher housing needs data • The School system is working on improving the reliability of their data and its collection related to employee housing needs. Public private partnerships • Encourage and support public private partnerships as part of the workforce housing solution. 5. Development Stakeholder Ideas and Perspectives Development Constraints • The critical areas of state concern and environmental issues constrain the available land for workforce housing. • The cost of labor and insurance is climbing so incentives for workforce housing will be an important stimulus. Authorize Land Authority to Build Workforce Housing • Fund the Monroe County Housing authority or other similar successful organizations to build workforce housing. Convert public land for workforce housing • The school board and the city may have large tracts that can be converted for workforce housing. • Need to use infrastructure $$ making land improvements for property we should own- RFPs for developers. Tax credit housing and workforce • Meridian West- 102 units for very low income. It has the lowest turnover of any very low-income housing project in Florida with 3 bedroom apartment renting for around $1100. The very low and low income are the best served in terms of affordable housing of the workforce population. Workforce housing is where the gaps are. Livability and Affordability • Tax credit developers- Designed for good purpose but because of bureaucratic overhead, can only do large scale projects that may look out of place and unattractive to the people living in and nearby the units/development. • Livability ideas are secondary with landscaping and signage not given a high priority. Need to consider "livability" not just tax credits and affordability when building workforce housing. • Scale is an issue here with smaller projects there is a greater chance of empowering residents to maintain their homes. The larger projects have ongoing maintenance and management costs Address Spectrum of Workers and Housing Needs Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 28 • Have to clarify what workers want and need in terms of housing. What is the real need? Employees from Eastern Europe- Hawks Cay- Vast majority of employees- 6 months at a time. Is sharing an apartment for these workers a bad idea? • What portion of staff/employers made up of transient migrant workers? What are their needs? How many are working in City of Key West and where can their housing needs be best addressed? What role might dormitories play? Incentives for smaller unit projects Consider providing incentives for more smaller unit projects that will be more livable. The tax credit resource funding for this doesn't practically work below 20-25 units because of costs. • Provide incentives for small apartment complexes, not big units, e.g. develop 10- 20 units with multiple occupancy. • They can be nicely done dorm style with shared kitchen consistent with character, built to code and also preserve green space. Hotels re -openings and workforce housing impacts • May not be new hotels coming on but those that were shut down are reopening. We need to be careful about what that means in terms of housing demand. There may not be growth in the population going forward. Workforce Housing and Live Aboard Boats • What are the City of Key West statistics on Mooring Fields. There may be more than 120 boats in mooring fields providing affordable housing. How many boats are there for a short or longer time? How many are providing workforce housing? What is the quality? Addressing Trailer and RV Parks as Workforce Housing • What role do existing trailer and RV parks play in affordable workforce housing in Monroe County? • What has been the enforcement experience with the 30% rule in converting trailer parks in the County? Waive building permit fees • Have local governments waive building permit fees for affordable and workforce housing projects. Political will Is there the political will to implement workforce housing solutions? • There has been at times, for example the last Workforce Housing Task Force in 2007 had some of it recommendation implemented. Encourage mixed use • We should be encouraging mixed use in central areas throughout the Keys. Consider greater use of an inclusionary affordable housing fee • The County should set a fee for inclusionary housing such as the $40,000 per inclusionary housing credit that Marathon is proposing. This fee would be paid to the Monroe County Housing Authority in an affordable housing trust fund to be distributed to those who actually build affordable housing. This would create a subsidy paid from new market rate or transient (hotel) projects to be distributed to those who actually build the affordable housing. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 29 • To assure the housing is built and completed, the subsidy would not be funded until the certificates of occupancy for the affordable housing are issued. • This type of commitment would incentivize those who are willing to build affordable housing, and the funds would come from those building the projects that require inclusionary housing without the market rate developer from having to use some of his/her market rate allocations on affordable housing. • All transient unit development and re -development should require inclusionary affordable housing ordinance, or impact fee assessment. Increase density and height • With limited lands on which to build affordable housing, increase the density and height (e.g. 40 feet vs. 35 feet) for affordable housing to make this feasible. • Increased density in appropriate zoning districts within commercial areas to facilitate workforce housing. • Increase height in appropriate areas. • Build up! Build new! Much of the KWHA properties are old, ugly, small and inefficiently sparse. Density needs to increase. Increase the capacity of highways • To increase ROGO allocation work together to secure funding to increase the capacity of highways. Review city and county owned lands for use as workforce housing • Identify all city and county owned lands for workforce housing that do not present environmental issues and utilize for workforce housing. Develop a workforce housing 10-year strategic plan. • Look for early successes in the first 3-5 years in adjusting regulations. Set a goal of cutting the gap in workforce housing by 50%. • The approach to "renter vs. ownership" should be "both/and." Address the 2018 FEMA changes • We need to prepare in required elevations (AE 7 becomes 9) and 60% of houses will be in jeopardy making them harder to resale or rebuild. Surplus land • The County and Cities should inventory surplus land and identify land that can be used for workforce housing. • Lift the cap on the number of credits, keep construction costs per unit low ($25,000) • Consider additional sales subsidy to help deals that are short. Identify and Aggregate Parcels of Public Land • County and the Cities haven't done enough to identify parcels of land and aggregate them. We need to do more surplus land analysis. Additional density for workforce housing • We have to be creative. We should consider giving additional density to developers who are constructing a workforce community/development with a couple market rate units. Add commercial development and redevelopment • Based on employees and square feet (use industry standards and sales tax codes) for an impact fee assessment. Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 30 ROGO Transfers • Implement a ROGO transfer ordinance whereby a market rate unit may be dislodged if an affordable unit replaces the dislodged market rate. • Issue no market rate ROGO units for multi -unit development projects, instead, issue "affordables" and require developers to take the affordable units and deed restrict existing market rate properties and then dislodge the market rate for use elsewhere as their market rates. Buy Down Interest Rates for Workforce Housing Projects • Use land authority money or impact fees to buy down interest rates for development costs for work force housing projects. Cut Taxing Rates on Workforce Housing • Legislation to cut taxing rates on affordable and workforce housing. Commercial Properties for Workforce Housing • Give commercial properties that are used for workforce housing rental the same tax and insurance (flood) breaks as primary homestead properties. 6. Lodging, Hospitality and Tourist Development-- Ideas and Perspectives The Hospitality Economy • Hospitality represents 80% of the economic activity in the Keys. Its workforce is very transient and generally looking to rent not purchase. Lodging Industry and Workforce Housing • Lodging industry may be only industry in the Keys that is trying to address workforce housing for new properties. For example the Westin in Key West has 75 units set aside housing 105 people from managers to cooks. Marketing and the Keys • Focusing on creating a year round destination with success in Key West. Spreading the marketing effort out over the year to increase visits and occupancy in the off season and slow season. Colorado recently decided it had marketed sufficiently and moved to disband their statewide marketing effort. The next season resulted in a big drop in tourism. Tourism remains the key part of the Key's economy. Importance of continuing to market the Keys • Colorado experience in cutting budget for statewide marketing led to big drop in the tourism economy. Environmental Land Acquisition vs. Affordable Housing • With the years in which funding was put towards environmentally land acquisition, relatively little was invested affordable housing. What is a smart split between the 2 purposes? Transportation and the Keys. • The transit service from Miami -Dade to Marathon and north in the Upper Keys is currently funded by the Dade County local transit 1/2 penny, state and federal dollars but no Monroe County support for the transit service. • As job opportunities grow in Miami Dade, what impact will this have on the supply of lodging industry and related tourist industry employees in the Upper Keys? "Getting on bus at Walmart in Florida City to go south for work, the :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, .April 2015 31 question for workers is How available is work, where and how much does it pay • Homestead and Florida City provide high densities of immigrant populations which housing in Monroe County does not offer. • Hotels in the Upper Keys are interested in working with Monroe and Dade Counties in finding a solution to sustaining and improving the transit service that provides lodging and hospitality works from Marathon and north. Some hotels are supplementing the bus routes with their own busses. • We need better transit in the lower Keys to support the workforce transportation needs. • Better public transportation in the lower keys. Reliability and cost of public transportation options to deal with fact that more affordable housing is further away from jobs. • Need reliable transit from workforce housing to work especially with parking issues in Key West. Alternatives such as biking and scooters are not practical given weather. Consider using smaller and more transit vehicles in the Key West area. Employee turnover • Person dependent industries cannot outsource jobs. Need to find ways to reduce employee turnover which often relates to housing/rental costs. Vacation rentals and Preserving Affordable Units • This is a large problem throughout the Keys impacting the supply of workforce housing. However it may be that many are above the workforce housing price range. • More important than building new workforce housing is how can we maintain what is affordable for the median income workers. During the downturn property values went down while rentals went up. Workforce housing is primarily the rental housing market. Consider whether there might be restrictions or new regulations creating some disincentives for converting units to vacation rentals. Online Vacation Rentals Marketplace • Address the online market place for vacation rentals that connects users with property to rent with users looking to rent the space(e.g. AirBnB) and its impact on bed tax revenue • Also, related to this is the new addition of Air B&B and lack of regulation and enforcement. This raises safety issues as well as the "free ride" by not paying the bed tax. It may be much easier to rent through this approach than to a workforce tenant. Help Workforce Renters • Consider providing down payment/deposit assistance. Hospitality Industry Data • Hotels have been reluctant to share data on workforce housing as some is tied to employment contracts and privacy concerns. Disseminating Workforce Housing Information • We need more effective affordable housing information that is available to workers. ;Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, April 2015 32 Height restrictions • Can build more rental units on both 2"`' and 3' floors with first floor commercial in the lower Keys if the height restrictions are eased. For example consider strip malls with the upper level dedicated to housing. Public Property • County and Cities may be the biggest land owners and should identify public property with buildings that might be torn down to build housing. Balance environmentally land acquisition with affordable housing • investment. Historically, nothing or little has been allocated towards AH effort. What is a smart split between the 2 purposes. NIMBYism ("Not in my back yard") • Lodging industry did general marketing efforts focusing on nurses and police and workforce housing which helped. However, there continues to be a lack of creating new workforce housing. • Give Land Authority the ability to devote some of the bed tax funding to purchase workforce housing. Retention and the High Cost of Housing • Tourist Development Council data shows that 94% of those leaving the County are leaving because of high cost of living and housing. Rents going up • While land values dropped down during the recession, rentals went up as many owners faced with increases in wind storm and flood insurance and property taxes passed these on to tourism workers. 7. Business Sector including Real Estate Island economy and community • Housing has always presented a dilemma and changes in an island community and economy. 100 years ago the cigar manufacturers had to address this. • We have a dynamically changing environment with a finite piece of real estate and nothing else to fall back on. Over the past 15 years, credit should be given for successfully putting together affordable housing units in the face of regulatory and NIMBY hurdles, but we are still far short of bridging the gap and meeting the demand. • "Checks and land" can solve the workforce housing problem. Clarify our workforce targets for housing • It is not clear what kind of workforce and housing are we seeking to provide? Hotel, motel, restaurant or managers- each with a different set of problems. • We don't know anymore what the community needs. Do we need single residential occupancy for 500 guest workers in Key West? Probably not. • We may not have an analytical feel for what we need in terms of workforce housing throughout the Keys. Impact on community of transient workforce • What are we doing to the cultural makeup of the community with a transient workforce? Children grow up and move to less expensive places instead of making Monroe County their home. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 33 • Biggest concern is the character and flavor of Monroe county may be going away and losing our foundation. The next generation shrinking. Wind and flood insurance • Rising insurance costs are compounding the housing problem- driving rents up beyond affordability. Political will • We will need the political will to make changes to bridge the gap of workforce housing • Previous Task Forces on affordable housing have been very difficult and challenging to serve on in terms of pleasing the elected leaders and citizens. • Do we have the political will to continue grappling with this problem and implementing solutions? Is the problem only a shortage of affordable units suitable for workforce housing? • We have opportunities but do we have the political will to get this done? There's too much, "I've got mine," in the community. How many of our elected leaders works or owns a business? Land trusts as a tool • The Bahama Land Trust debacle has made serious discussion of land trusts as part of the tool kit very difficult. Prioritize units over "money in lieu of • Is it even possible to prevent gentrification on island that is 2X3 square miles? Don't look for $$ in lieu of as we need units. Hold off major changes to workforce housing pending the Affordable Housing Committee's work • The County appears to be getting ready to change income limitations to target working households at the middle level. Hold off implementing changes until we have reinstituted and charged the Affordable Housing Committee. Permit Bed Tax to support purchase/building of workforce housing • Change the law to allow purchase and building of workforce housing. Put it where people can get to work. 8. Non -Profit Sector Ideas and Perspectives Living wages • Affordable housing programs for low income earners range from 80 to 140 % of AMI, yet real wages for career type workers are closer to 60% AMI. • Employers in Monroe County are not expected to pay a living wage. The wealth created in our tourist economy depends upon low wage, high turnover, and low skill employees. Limited housing supply and investment wealth • The outside wealth that purchases a second home or invests in real estate in the Keys drives up the asking and selling prices for all properties where the dynamic of a limited supply of land and great wealth seeking investment churns on constantly. This dynamic is shared with other resort locations. The compromises workers make then is to work several jobs and/or to live in substandard housing or to leave. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 34 • We need to get more citizens of Monroe County invested in the future of this place. ROGO and affordable housing • The measured gap between the number of units needed and the available ROGOs demonstrates the futility of trying to build our way out of the crisis. The negotiations with DEO provide affordable housing units for the next 20 years within the frame work of evacuation limits. These new affordable units are critical but will not solve the need. • The operative assumption for allowing more density for certain types of affordable housing is that all of the types of ROGOs are not necessarily equal. Consider assigning a ROGO value of less than one unit for affordable homes less than 600 square feet or so. The Comprehensive Plan, the DEO, and evacuation models can be examined for alternative methods to allow more density for affordable units that are smaller. • The second home owners who are not necessarily in residence during the hurricane evacuation season is an example of units counted against evacuation times where the actual impact may not exist. The number of homes that are vacant in Monroe County due to second home ownership has been noted in several studies • The Area of State Critical Concern uses the dwelling unit as its basic unit of control. The management of and regulation of all home types will become critical to assessing evacuation time. Monroe County should audit all housing types and create an inventory detailing the status of each ROGO. Benefits from an audit would include identifying flood prone structures, uninhabitable units, illegal units, etc. • Change ROGO to square footage. Affordable housing has not been protected • When government has granted greater densities or used inclusionary zoning it has not always registered, audited or tracked compliance to ensure the permanency of these precious units. Deed restrictions were not monitored. • The temptation to convert affordable units into market rate units, rental or ownership, is too great and with little penalty or notice. Affordable housing "lost units" • The community has a strong common interest in protecting those affordable units it has lost after subsidizing or underwriting their creation. If the will were to exist, these "lost "units could be investigated and the current owner asked to revert them to affordable status. Liens and other mechanisms exist to "take" on the public's behalf what was not proper to convert in the first place. Redevelopment and inclusionary zoning • Inclusionary zoning as a government policy has been in place for new development. It is time to explore requiring affordable housing units from redevelopment projects. Lower and Middle Keys different workforce housing issues • The lower and middle keys have different issues and solutions from the upper keys where day labor bused in from the mainland can assist in the workforce. But the market dynamics are found in common through all of the keys. :Monroe County• \Workforce Housing Stakeholder .-Assessment Report, April 2015 35 Funding inequity • A strong argument can be made to correct the inequity of the donor/recipient that exists, based on the $6 million a year that Monroe County gives to The Sadowski Housing Trust Fund every year compared to the pittance of $300,000 in SHIP funds returned this year and in the past. Transportation • Lack of transportation infrastructure makes workforce housing more problematic. New workforce housing partnerships needed • Many differing approaches in scope and scale will be required with various partnerships between government, private, for profit and nonprofit developers. Affordable yet substandard housing • Rental housing that costs less than $900 a month, regardless of size or condition, is termed affordable despite being unsafe or substandard or very small. Political will • The political will to make real changes in policies, incentives, regulations and to commit resources remains to be sustained. Don't repeat studies, focus on action • The comprehensive studies, recommendations and published works on the topic do not need to be repeated. The metrics of this problem are well known and documented. The dynamics and facts have changed little over the years: outside wealth creates seasonal homes that are not available; the profit generated from transient units puts pressure on dense mobile home and RV parks; tourist industry wages are low, turnover is high, landlords can rent substandard units due to high demand for any type of housing, etc. Other related issues • While workforce housing is the focus of the moment, there are important related issues of food insecurity, education, child care for employees are critical to the workforce housing discussion. • While addressing workforce housing, we should address homelessness (and the growing youth % of this population) and help with the path back to working for families. • Where will the employees of the new lodging establishments be housed? • There has been a huge uptick in the demand at food pantries across the County and not just among homeless people but with working families still in homes. 47% of families countywide with kids under 18 are eligible for reduced lunch. Of this population, 46% are minorities. Lack of affordable workforce housing has led to food insecurity. If we didn't have a housing problem we wouldn't have a food security issue. • Many elected leaders are not aware of the childcare challenges faced by those working and living in the Keys. Those who haven't raised family here are not aware of the lack of child care options and its impact on the work force. • If we can't control housing costs for working families, all other costs such as childcare, food prices, etc. are related and compounded. Expand the Keys Economy. • We need to think outside the box and expand our efforts to build a future Keys :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder _Assessment Report, .April 2015 36 economy beyond tourism. • We need all parts of the demographic in Monroe County. 9. Military Sector Ideas and Perspectives Recruitment and retention • Workforce housing affects the recruitment and retention. The housing set aside for the base workforce has a long wait list. Housing is the #1 issue for their civilian workforce. There is not a week where the Commander is not involved in a family housing issue. Communication and coordination • In terms of the Naval Air Station lines of communication and coordination have been improved with the Commander now the point of contact for coordination. Presence in the community • In terms of presence in Monroe County, there are roughly 1600 military (including Coast Guard), 1000 civilians and 400 contractors or about 3000 employees and about 5500 including families, spouses and dependents. Evacuation procedures • In terms of evacuation, the Commanding Officer implements the recommendations of the County Emergency Manager and will close the base and issue evacuation orders for military personnel. Civilian workers are urged to evacuate and are provided travel orders and funds to evacuate. The 550 RV units in the Naval Air Station campgrounds evacuated first. Need for buffer areas and workforce housing • In terms of searching for solutions to locating workforce housing in Key West, the Naval Air Station strives to protect public health and welfare and its mission by keeping buffer areas separate without housing in the high noise of unsafe areas surrounding the base. • The Naval Air Station does not get directly involved in growth issues such as density and intensity unless it directly impacts the buffer areas. Only exception to this was their support for the widening of the 18-mile stretch of US 1. • General concern with the impact of vacation rentals on the supply of workforce rental housing for the over 5,500 Base employees and their families, spouses and dependents. Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 37 IV. WORKFORCE HOUSING PROCESS- STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVES A. Information Needed to Inform Consensus Building on Workforce Housing Monroe County staff has gathered a draft detailed baseline data that included an inventory of affordable and workforce housing projects completed over the past 2 decades in Monroe County, along with the public incentives that were made to assist in the housing development.

These background papers can be found at: http://consensus.fsu.edu/Workforce-Housing-Assessment/ B. Workforce Housing Stakeholder Perspectives on the Process Going Forward Among the range of stakeholders interviewed, all expressed the need for a focused and comprehensive county -wide workforce housing dialogue that involved those with a stake in the outcome. Many believed that such a committee should develop a package of consensus recommendations, informed by data and the range of stakeholder and public perspectives, that can provide for both short and longer term actions for the Board of County Commission's consideration. While some of those interviewed remained skeptical that there will be sufficient "political will" to implement the Committee's recommendations as has been the case in the past, many believed that this was an urgent and timely issue for the County to address in light of hotel redevelopment and the economic upturn. As one stakeholder put it, "the re-establishing of the Affordable Housing Committee is a good step. Funding staff to work with it will be a measure of the commitment to effect real solutions. The mix of expertise, perspective and operating experience that the committee can bring to bear has great potential value. However, the community support and political will must be nurtured for difficult decisions on the demonstrated effective approaches of density, height and permanent protection and the mix of rentals and ownership." In the Fall of 2014, following the initiation of this Assessment, the Commission re- appointed members to the existing Affordable Housing Advisory Committee and with the thought of convening and charging them with addressing workforce housing issues and providing the County Commission with its recommendations. The reconvened committee would review this assessment report and other data as it addressed its charge. A workforce housing committee, ad hoc or otherwise, appointed and charged by the County Commission to address workforce housing issues in the Florida Keys was explored in the assessment interviews. A significant number of those interviewed applauded the County Commission's action in re -purposing the existing Affordable Housing Advisory Committee to focus, at least in the short term, on workforce housing. It was suggested that this approach could provide representation from each District in the County, offer workforce housing perspectives from the public, private and nonprofit sectors, and minimize confusion and any duplication of effort that an ad hoc workforce housing committee might create. It was also pointed out that this charge would be consistent with the Committee's current mission to address affordable housing opportunities in Monroe County for both "residents and workforce." (emphasis added) A workforce housing committee, ad hoc or otherwise, appointed and charged by the County Commission to address workforce housing issues in the Florida Keys was explored in the assessment interviews. A significant number of those interviewed suggested the County :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 42 Commission should consider utilizing and re -purposing the existing Affordable Housing Advisory Committee to focus at least in the short term on workforce housing.12 It was suggested that this would provide representation from each District in the County and minimize confusion and any duplication of effort that an ad hoc workforce housing committee might create in relation to the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee. It was also pointed out that this would be consistent with the Committee's current mission to address affordable housing opportunities in Monroe County. The Ordinance also provides that, "The advisory committee may perform additional responsibilities related to affordable housing at the request of the BOCC, including creating best management practices for the development of affordable housing in the community." [2-701(c)] The Commission should review the current Committee appointments to ensure that a balance of workforce housing stakeholder perspectives are included in its membership. If the Commission charges the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee to develop consensus recommendations on workforce housing actions for consideration by the Monroe County BOCC, most stakeholders interviewed suggested there should be a sufficient range of stakeholder perspectives represented and participating in the consensus building. This would allow the Committee to develop informed workforce housing consensus findings and recommendations that stakeholders might support and the County Commission could act upon.13 There is a great deal of public and stakeholder interest in the workforce housing issues the Committee will take up. The membership requirements, as set forth in both Florida statute and the Monroe County Resolution, do not reference representation of the municipalities in the County, the military, the Monroe County School Board and perhaps other organizations impacted by workforce housing policies and programs and with a stake in contributing to solutions to improve the availability of workforce housing in the Florida Keys." The format for the Committee meetings should encourage constructive public and stakeholder input. The Commission might consider charging the Committee with establishing an engagement strategy to involve a broader range of stakeholders in their development of findings and recommendations. This might be accomplished through opportunities for public input during their own meetings, as well as through Committee 12 This would be consistent with their responsibility for developing every three years an affordable housing incentive recommendations report to the BOCC. The next triennial report will be due December 312017 13 The Current membership includes the following 11 members: Sylvia Murphy, :Monroe County BOCC, Expires 11/2015, Tim Root, District 1, Expires 11/2016, Heather Roberts, District 1, Expires 11/2016, James D. Cameron, District 2, Expires 11/2018, Randy Wall, District 2, Expires 11/2018, Warren Leamard, District 3, Expires 11/2016, Ken Naylor, District 3, Expires 11/2016, Hana Eskra, District 4, Expires 11/2018, Edwin Swift III, District 4, Expires 11/2018, William Wiatt, District 4, Expires 11/ 2016, Jim Saunders, District 5, Expires 11/2016 and Stephanie Scuderi District 5, Expires 11/2016. 14 http://wwtiv.monroecounty-flgov/DocumentCenter/Home/View/695 The membership follows the requirements of Florida Statute 420.9076 and Monroe County Resolution 062-2009, and calls for representation from those involved in affordable housing in: the residential home building industry from both a business and labor perspective, the mortgage and banking industry, the real estate industry, an advocate for low income persons, a for profit and a not for profit provider of affordable housing, a representative of employers in the County and a member of the local planning, and a representative of essential services personnel. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 2015 43 sponsored advisory workgroups, joint workshops with municipal taskforces and city commissions, workshops at key moments in the development of options and recommendations, online surveys and other techniques. (See Appendix #7 for Advisory Group process recommendations). It was observed by many that an advisory committee developing recommendations on workforce housing will require dedicated staff, including legal and planning expertise, and facilitation support for the Committee to do its work expeditiously. This is because of the complexity of the charge, the intense public interest in the issue, the linkages with other issues and programs and activities in the public, private and non-profit sectors, and the desire for timely actions to address the current workforce housing challenges. V. WORKFORCE HOUSING IN MONROE COUNTY --NEXT STEPS The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners should review this Assessment Report and charge the Affordable Housing Committee to focus its efforts in the coming year on workforce housing. With a charge from the County Commission, the Committee should establish its procedures and approach and a schedule for meetings that would permit it to deliver back to the BOCC its workforce housing recommendations by mid-2016. The Committee should consider: • Developing a shared vision of success; • jointly defining the workforce problems faced in the Florida Keys; • Reviewing the range of issues and options identified in previous studies; • Reviewing the experience and lessons learned with successful workforce housing projects developed in the Keys to date; • Reviewing this Stakeholder Assessment Report; and • Developing a package of consensus findings and recommended solutions for consideration by the Monroe County Board of County Commission. This stakeholder assessment report confirms that there is wide agreement that Monroe County is facing a significant and growing workforce housing crisis with shortages for both affordable rental and ownership units. There is also agreement that no single strategy will solve this crisis. Instead the challenge ahead for Monroe County and municipalities and the range of stakeholders interested in workforce housing, is to craft a balanced package of targeted options that have been refined through discussion and debate and that can serve as a consensus framework for addressing and implementing solutions.

WHAT ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES AFFECTING MONROE COUNTY'S WORKFORCE HOUSING? What is working well? • The 100-year deed restriction. • Consideration of workforce housing. • Collection of affordable housing (in -line) fees. • When funded, Sadowski. • Florida housing finance Corporation funding. Monroe County 40 funding. Key West housing authority and Munroe County Housing Authority's management of government owned apartments. • Tax -credit housing has made gains recently, particularly in the Upper Keys. Building has slowed over the past several years and presently is proceeding but only at a moderate rate. • Land Authority — somewhat. • PPP's (public private partnerships) • Our park provides for visitors accommodation and tourist revenues. • Habitat does well because they use partnerships and provide permanent housing. • Habitat for humanity. • Gorman developments in Upper Keys. • New projects on Stock Island. • Habitat for humanity-- he is one of the leading builders and renters of homes. They need more assistance from government to provide land to build. • Not enough information to know. • Not much, if anything. • Nothing. • Nothing! What's not? • Confusion on definitions. • Financing, high costs • Cost of insurance. • Set up funds for new construction, first time home buyers. • Sadowski fund --replenished for Monroe County. • Sadowski Act funding. • Lack of incentives for building affordable housing. • More work, fewer people to do it, • Workforce/affordable housing programs do not cover the full range of individuals struggling to afford to live and work in the Keys. • Insufficient collaboration and comprehensive county wide planning. • I don't see a strategic plan all encompassing of all entities. This confusing topic must be simplified, and can be. • We need to figure out how to put the land authority/Housing Authority and bed tax money together and form development plan for affordable housing. • Workforce housing is not affordable for working people. ;Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 2015 52 • Availability of housing to reduce out of pocket rental cost to less than 20% salary. Personally I am being priced out of housing as I do not qualify for affordable housing. My rent went up $350 in the past three years with 10 pay raises to offset. • Tourism/service jobs with low salaries. Wages insufficient for high cost of living. • Not enough housing. • Lack of availability. • Buildable land for affordable housing. • More second -home owners eating up properties. • Limitations with non -tier 3 land • Regulations, density, height. • Length of permitting time, • State housing allocations, land development, • Legislation to cut taxing rates on affordable housing. • Connection with job creators and requirements for housing. • Many affordable units historically approved had short-term (20 years) deed restrictions that are now expiring. • Prior developers have not developed workforce housing as required. • Housing for new businesses which require numerous employees. Identifying property to locate workforce housing and providing incentives to builders. Always being, as we are now, lagging behind the need. • Landlords are having to raise their rent as they incur more costs for their properties through tax increases, sewer, etc. • Needs to be split between rental and home ownership. Not a one -size -fits -all solution. • Availability of rentals. • HGTV. • Affordable housing advisory committee, 2. WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE THE FUTURE HOLD FOR WORKFORCE HOUSING IN MONROE COUNTY? What are the future challenges that need to be addressed? • Affordable housing allocations. • Limited land/permitting. • Difficulty to get permits. • Finding a formula that functions as a continuum. One size fits all will not work. • Lack of land on which to build housing. • Land acquisition. There are less vacant buildable lots available each year. The market rate applications/construction is increasing rapidly. • Height ordinances • Higher cost for rental properties, wind and flood insurance, plus higher taxes. • Funding to offset housing costs. • County requirements to match funding sources (HUD). • Lack of funds to subsidize or offer incentives. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .assessment Report, April 2015 53 • Changing state legislation to Land Authority and Housing Authority money to be used for workforce housing. Using our bed tax money for workforce housing. • Much of our current affordable housing is aging and not up to par for hurricanes which could lead to a future loss of workforce housing. • Ways to bring in new workforce housing for those at the top of the wage spectrum. • Environmental regulations often "trump" the ability to build. • Rising sea levels. • Insurance rates, • Tax rates, • The same as the past 15 years. • Focus! We need heads down, rolled up sleeves, and accountability! Distinct set aside time and deliverables. What are the future opportunities that should be leveraged? • Funding is increasing. • Land Authority money. • Counties (municipalities) inclusionary housing requirements should be funded partly by business development with funding for employee/affordable housing. • Sadowski fund --replenished for Monroe County. Set up funds for new construction, first time home buyers. • Local, state and federal funds. • State leverage for units to become allocated for affordable housing/workforce housing. • Huge opportunities if we effectively link workforce housing to development and redevelopment projects. • Housing units must be incorporated in new developments being constructed. • Require developers to build housing for the workforce. • As energy efficient technology becomes better and better it should be used to make new housing more affordable in the long term, especially since electricity is not cheap. • Smoke free housing as an amenity for the health and safety of residence as a cost -saving benefit for refurbishing units. • Explore increasing height limit of structures and increase densities in certain zonings. Use state and federal land for large affordable projects. • Buildable land for affordable housing. • Density requirements. • Build up! Build new! Much of the KWHA properties are old, ugly, small and inefficiently sparse. Density needs to increase. • The greatest opportunity is the current threat to our service economy. This threat has to be leveraged to bring this issue to the forefront. • Need to greatly increase the affordable workforce rentals. • Housing requirements for commercial development. • Rising flood and windstorm insurance rates. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .-Assessment Report, April 2015 54 3. HOW SHOULD THE COUNTY BEST ADDRESS THESE OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES AS WELL AS THE NEEDS OF THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY AND RESIDENTS IN THE FLORIDA KEYS? What strategies should Monroe County consider in addressing workforce housing issuesgoing forward? • Putting together a task force/committee. • Task force with staff (and legal support). Suggestions: o All transient unit development and re -development to be inclusionary housing ordinance, or impact fee assessment. o Add commercial development and redevelopment based on employees/square feet (use industry standards and sales tax codes) for an impact fee assessment. o Fund the Monroe County Housing Authority or other similar successful organizations to build workforce housing. o Implement a ROGO transfer ordinance whereby a market rate unit may be dislodged if an affordable unit replaces the dislodged market rate. o Issue no market rate ROGO units for multi -unit development projects, instead, issue "affordables" and require developers to take the affordable units and deed restrict existing market rate properties and then dislodge the market rate for use elsewhere as their market rates. o Use land authority money or impact fees to buy down interest rates for development costs for work force housing projects. o Increased density in appropriate zoning districts within commercial areas to facilitate workforce housing. o Increase height in appropriate areas. • Special considerations for landlords to make rental units affordable, while monitoring them to verify affordability. • Again, unifying developers, county and Key West city government representatives and finding funding streams for us to define land acquisitions, builders to build on this land, and the Housing Authority to oversee these affordable units. • Offer additional subsidies or incentives. Countywide effort to identify and acquire property to build. • Work with DEO to increase ROGO allocations. • Leveraging all resources. • Many need more space. • Focus all tier-3 properties on workforce housing. • Give commercial properties that are used for workforce rental the same tax and insurance (flood) breaks as primary homestead properties. • Focus land acquisition on workforce housing properties. • Provide funding for nonprofit affordable housing entities. • Develop a comprehensive plan that also deal with density and height restrictions. • Create a strategy. There is no 1 year, 5 year, 10 year plan. Set goals. Consider "Outside the box" ideas. • Keep our unique parks. • Adding to the planning smoke free amenity to curb costs in renovation. it is a CDC best practice for reducing secondhand smoke and it's related to chronic health issues. :Monroe Count' Workforce Housing Stakeholder Assessment Report, April 2015 55 APPENDIX #5 EMAIL COMMENTS From: Mike Rison <dfcmike@iserv.net> Subject: Re: Article in Key West Citizen regarding Affordable Housing Monroe County Date: August 28, 2014 11:28:02 A1NI EDT To: Bob Jones rmjones(a-,FSU.edu I was reading an article in the Key West Citizen regarding "affordable Housing" and your name was mentioned soliciting Citizen comments. I would like to submit a comment about the ".-Affordable Housing" issue in Monroe County. Please suggest the best way to submit a comment. I might suggest some background information that could form the basis for your continued study of this issue. As follows: The only place there is an "affordable Housing" issue in the Florida Keys (1Monroe County) is Key West). That pressure is caused by a 2 by 4 mile Island with 22,000 permanent residents that welcomes 2,000,000 Visitors per year. To service those 2,000,000 Visitors Key West has approximately 7000 lodging units. In most areas across the country prices flow percentage wise from the cost of residential housing (for many different reasons) in the case of Key West because the Tourist Development Council has done such a spectacular job of enticing visitors to visit Key West all pricing flows from the room rates of lodging. Consider this; a company was formed to purchase 4 old and aging hotels, closed them down, spent 3 years re -constructing them and will soon add 700 additional rooms to the lodging supply! The first thing that appears necessary is a fee on all Lodging to build "affordable Housing" for all working people as almost everyone in Key West is impacted by these huge numbers to support the Lodging Industry. A solution put forward by (probably by Developers) was to provide cheap transportation to areas of Monroe County that have cheap housing costs, like Florida City. So enter the Lower Keys Shuttle (Key West to Marathon, $2.00), The Upper Keys Shuttle (:Marathon to Florida City $0.50 with a transfer). So for a maximum $2.50 you can ride anywhere between mml and mm120, 120 miles the only problem is you could spend 2-4 hours on an air conditioned bus each way every day. all subsidized by the Federal Government with no cost borne by the recepientants of this great service. I have personally spent about $4.50 to ride to Fort Lauderdale International Airport (the Senior price). That's the Lower Keys Shuttle, The Upper Keys Shuttle, #38 Busway, The Metro Rail, The Tri Rail, free shuttle to Fort Lauderdale Int. airport. Also as printed in the news paper your e-mail address is listed incorrectly ( rmjones(d.;fsu.edu. ) that last dot after edu will cause an e-mail program to "choke". This may be your first indication of how the "powers that be" try to impede your work while still appearing to support the idea of Citizen input! If you need a copy I have included as an attachment a copy of the Citizen containing your e-mail address as printed in the Citizen. Regards bIR dfcmike(&iserv.net Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 56 APPENDIX #6 "AFFORDABLE HOUSING WHITE PAPER- CITY OF KEY WEST DONALD CRAIG & NICOLE M,1I.O Affordable Housing White Paper- Donald Craig, AICP Director of Planning & Nicole Malo AICP,Planner, September 2014 City of Key West: htT://Iegistarl.granicus.com/KeyWest/meetings/2014/10/2491 A City Commission 14-10- 07 :Meeting agenda Full Detail.pdf :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 57 APPENDIX #7 SAMPLE COMMITTEE PROTOCOLS There was a request for a sample of protocols that the Board of County Commission and any committee they charge with addressing workforce housing might consider as they develop the charge and organize the Committee's efforts. These are based on protocols developed and used by a variety of local , regional and statewide committees that have been charged with seeking consensus on policy options. CONSENSUS Defining Consensus Consensus is a deliberative process where a group seeks a shared understanding of a problem considers and evaluates all options and strives to achieve a practical agreement that all can live with. Consensus means that, to the extent possible, each member commits to work toward agreements that meet their own and other members needs so that all can support the outcome. Consensus is a process, an attitude and an outcome. Consensus processes have the potential of producing better quality, more informed and better -supported outcomes. As a process, consensus is a problem solving approach in which all members: 1. Jointly share, clarify and distinguish their concerns; 2. Educate each other on substantive issues; 3. Jointly develop alternatives to address concerns; and then; 4. Seek to adopt recommendations everyone can embrace or at least live with. In a consensus process, members should be able to honestly say: • I believe that other members understand my point of view, • I believe I understand other members' points of view; and • Whether or not I prefer this decision, I support it because it was arrived at openly and fairly and because it is the best solution we can achieve at this time. Consensus as an attitude means that each member commits to work toward agreements that meet their own and other member needs and interests so that all can support the outcome. Consensus as an outcome means that agreement on decisions is reached by all members or by a significant majority of members after a process of active problem solving. In a consensus outcome, the level of enthusiasm for the agreement may not be the same among all members on any issue, but on balance all should be able to live with the overall package. Levels of consensus on a committee outcome can include a mix of: • Participants who strongly support the solution; • Participants who can "live with" the solution; and, Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 58 • Some participants who do not support the solution but agree not to vote against it. SUCCESSFUL MEETINGS Successful Meetings Overview A successful meeting is a collaboration between members, staff, chair, facilitator, consultants (if relevant) and affected stakeholder interest groups. Consensus -based processes and decisions, developed working with diverse stakeholder interests affected by the issue(s), takes time to educate members' on the range of issues and possible solutions. Members have different levels of expertise and knowledge on the issues and require different levels of preparation and education ("getting up to speed") before they are prepared to evaluate options and make decisions. This is especially relevant to consensus -based decisions that strive for unanimity, or at a minimum a 75% level of support. In consensus -based processes one is not dealing with a simple majority decision requirement, instead the full range of issues and options are evaluated with the goal of ensuring stakeholder interests are addressed to the extent possible, and at a minimum are fairly considered. The reality is that consensus decisions, once reached, are durable, efficacious, long-lasting, and will have achieved the support of most if not all of the stakeholder interests affected by the issue(s). A meeting will be successful to the extent that staff, chair, facilitator(s) and project consultants plan meetings and meeting objectives, ensure members receive relevant materials, and design and prepare agenda packets, worksheets, surveys, and summary reports sufficiently in advance of meetings. A meeting will be successful to the extent that members' review materials, study the issues, consult with constituent stakeholders between meetings, complete pre and between meeting assignments, and prepare prior to the meetings. If there are documents and/or information members believe should be evaluated they should let chair/staff/facilitator know. Similarly, if there are meeting objectives and/or agenda items member's think should be added to the agenda, they should identify them during "Agenda Review" and during the "Next Steps" phase of each meeting where next meeting agenda items are requested. In summary, meeting success is a group effort requiring collaboration, cooperation, planning, commitment, time and resources. It is the responsibility of staff, chairs, facilitators, consultants, members, stakeholder groups, and the public to ensure meetings are productive and successful. In short, it is "our" responsibility. CONSENSUS -BUILDING AND DECISION -MAKING PROCEDURES The Monroe County Affordable Housing Committee (Committee) will seek consensus on guidance and recommendations to the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) The Committee's consensus building and decision making process is participatory, on matters of substance, the members will jointly strive for agreements which all of the members can accept, :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 59 support or at least agree not to oppose. In instances where, after vigorously exploring possible ways to enhance the members' support for the final decision on an issue or package of advisory recommendations, and where 100% acceptance or support is not achievable, final recommendations of the Committee will require at least a 75% favorable vote of all members present and voting. This super majority decision rule underscores the Committee's view of the importance of seeking consensus. In the event the Committee can not reach consensus (75% in favor) on a decision, a minority report may be requested immediately following the vote, describing the rationales and preferences of those dissenting, to be included in the meeting summary report. The Committee will make advisory recommendations only when a quorum is present. A quorum shall be constituted by at least 51% of the appointed members being present (simple majority). The Committee will utilize Robert's Rules of Order, as modified by the Committee's adopted consensus guidelines and procedures, to make and approve motions; however, the 75% supermajority voting requirement will supercede the normal voting requirements used in Robert's Rules of Order for decision making on substantive motions and amendments to motions. In addition, the Committee will utilize their adopted meeting guidelines for conduct during meetings. The Committee will make substantive advisory recommendations using their adopted facilitated consensus -building procedures, and will use Robert's Rules of Order only for formal motions once a facilitated discussion is completed. The Committee's facilitation team, in general, should use parliamentary procedures set forth in Robert's Rules of Order, as modified by Committee's adopted procedural guidelines. Any voting member may make a motion when a quorum is present, and after a thorough discussion. A second is required to discuss the motion. If a motion is seconded, the Facilitator will open the floor for discussion. The Facilitator will recognize members wishing to speak on the motion. The Facilitator will, if time permits, recognize other participants wishing to speak on the motion. The Facilitator may elect or be requested by the member making the motion to take a "straw poll" on the motion. Based on the result, the Facilitator may table the motion with the agreement of the member moving it, pending further discussion. The member making the motion may accept friendly amendments to the motion. After completing discussion, the Facilitator will call the discussion to a close and restate the motion, with any friendly amendments, and call for a vote. If the motion receives a 75% or more favorable vote of the members present and voting it will be approved. MEMBER'S ROLE ✓ Prepare for meetings. Review documents and background material prior to meetings. ✓ Keep to the agenda and meeting procedural polices and guidelines. ✓ The Committee process is an opportunity to explore possibilities. Offering or exploring an idea does not necessarily imply support for it. ✓ Listen to understand. Seek a shared understanding even if you don't agree. ✓ Be focused and concise —balance participation & minimize repetition. Share the airtime. ✓ Look to the facilitator(s) to be recognized. Please raise your hand (or tent card) to speak. ✓ Speak one person at a time.

Please be prepared to offer specific refinements or changes to address your reservations. The following scale will be utilized for the ranking exercises: ACCEPTABILITY 4= Acceptable, 3= Acceptable, 2= Not Acceptable, 1= Not RANKING (agree I agree with minor I don't agree unless major Acceptable SCALE reservations reservations addressed PRIORITIZATION RANKING SCALE 5 Highest Level of Priority; Urgent 4 High Priority 3 Moderate Level of Priority 2 Low Level of Priority 1 Lowest Possible Priority; Committee Should not Pursue TOPIC RANK 5 4 3 2 1 RAW AVERAGE 1 SCORE AGENDA SUBMITTAL AND CONSIDERATION PROCEDURES All agenda items must be submitted by close of business ten (10) days prior to the next scheduled Committee meeting. The staff will review a proposed agenda item for a determination of whether the issue falls under the charge of the Committee. Staff will notify the member proposing the agenda item of the determination whether the issue will be placed on the Committee's next agenda. Committee members will receive all proposed agenda items and supporting documentation at least seven days prior to the next scheduled Committee meeting. No new agenda items will be considered at the Committee meeting with the exception of those issues raised by the staff that have been determined to require immediate Committee action, or by the unanimous (100%) approval of a quorum of the Committee through the Chair. Nfonroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder assessment Report, April 2015 62 Agenda items that meet submittal criteria and arrive after the established deadline will be placed on the next regularly scheduled Committee meeting agenda. Based on number of agenda items the Facilitator, in consultation with the Chair, may allocate a specific amount of time for each agenda item. The Committee by a 75% favorable vote may discuss requested agenda items not meeting the submittal criteria requirements but may not take any formal action on the issue until the next scheduled Committee meeting. Special meetings may be called by the staff in consultation with the Chair, based on urgency and necessity for immediate action. AGENDA ITEM SUBMITTAL CRITERIA Agenda item must be submitted 10 days prior to regularly scheduled Committee meetings. Proposed agenda item must clearly state the action requested of the Committee. If applicable, proponent should provide exact ordinance, rule or statutory references that the proposal addresses. Proponent should provide all necessary supporting documentation required for Committee and staff to determine the merits of the request. Proponent must indicate that they have not requested any additional actions on the proposed agenda items such as an administrative hearing or declaratory statement. Proponent must provide the following contact and agenda information: CONTACT INFORMATION Name: Organization/Representation: Address: Phone and Fax Numbers: E-Mail Address: Date Submitted: AGENDA ITEM INFORMATION Date of Committee Meeting: Name of Presenter: Representation of Presenter: Agenda Item Title: Amount of Time Requested: Rationale for Agenda Item: Specific Action Requested: Background Documentation: MEETING PROCESS —AGENDA ITEM CONSIDERATION PROCEDURES 1. Facilitator introduces the agenda item/proposal. 2. Proponent states the action requested and provides rationale for proposal. Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .-Assessment Report, April 2015 63 3. Facilitator asks Committee members only for clarifying questions (a clarifying question addresses a specific point that is not understood, and should not indicate support or opposition to the proposal). 4. After questions, the facilitator opens the issue up for discussion. All Committee members and Staff wishing to speak raise their name tents and be acknowledged by the Facilitator prior to speaking. Committee approved meeting guidelines are in effect at all times. FOR PROPOSALS (issues requiring Committee action): Following Committee member's preliminary discussion, the facilitator asks if any members of the public wishes to address the Committee on the current issue under Committee consideration. The facilitator serves as a moderator for public input. The facilitator asks for those who wish to speak in favor of the proposal or topic under discussion to offer brief comments, others who wish to speak in favor will be asked to offer new points or simply state agreement with previous speakers. The same opportunity and requirements will be offered for those who wish to speak in opposition to the proposal or topic under discussion. The facilitator ensures that all views are expressed and similar views are not repeated. Members may, through the facilitator or chair, ask clarifying questions to members of the public offering comments. The facilitator or chair may limit public comment to three (3) minutes per person. This process will be used for substantive Committee issues and not for procedural matters before the Committee. FOR DISCUSSION ISSUES (no formal action required): Following Committee member's preliminary discussion, the facilitator asks if any members of the public wishes to address the Committee on the current issue under Committee consideration. The facilitator serves as a moderator for public input. Members of the public will be provided one opportunity to comment per discussion agenda item, and may be limited to three (3) minutes. Members may, through the facilitator or chair, ask clarifying questions to members of the public offering comments. This process is used for Committee substantive issues and not for procedural matters before the Committee. FOR PROPOSALS AND DISCUSSION ISSUES (Substantive Agenda Items): After discussion and public comment, a Committee member may make a motion for an action on the issue. If there is a second to the motion, the facilitator will call for discussion. Once a motion is made and seconded the discussion will be restricted to only Committee members unless the facilitator or chair requests specific clarification from the staff or a member of the public. Members may request specific clarification from a member of the public through the facilitator/chair. A member may wish to second a motion for the purpose of Committee discussion and not necessarily as a show of support for the motion. If the motion involves an option that the public has already commented on, then the vote is taken, if the proposed action (motion) is materially different from what was discussed, an additional opportunity should be provided for public comment, and then the Committee votes on the motion. Only motions to approve will be considered. There will be no motions to disapprove. If there is no motion after discussion or a motion with no second, the requested action is not approved. :Monroe County Workforce Housing Stakeholder .Assessment Report, .April 2015 64 MEETING PROCESS PROCEDURES • Facilitator introduces each agenda item. • Proponent/Presenter provides overview, rationale for proposal, and any requested action. • Clarifying questions from members (i.e. something you don't understand).

The Facilitator will recognize members wishing to speak on the motion. • Committee votes on the motion. • Once a motion is on the floor discussion is restricted to Committee members except as allowed by the facilitator or chair for purposes of clarification. • For Committee members offering a second, is it understood that they may be seconding for purposes of discussion, and not necessarily due to agreement with the motion. • Committee members may offer friendly amendments. If accepted by maker of the motion, the friendly amendment becomes a part of the motion currently under discussion. • In order to get a "read" on a motion, the Facilitator may elect or be requested by the member making the motion to take a "straw poll" on the motion. Based on the result, the Facilitator may suggest to the member moving that they withdraw or table the motion pending further discussion. • Committee members may offer an amendment to the motion: second required, discussion, vote on the amendment only. • The motion on the table is now the motion as amended (if amendment was accepted by the mover and approved by 75% or greater of the Committee).

We are at this time still in the midst of determining the full extent of its catastrophic impacts and documenting our shared vision of recovery. The Florida Keys are a chain of islands connected by 112 miles of US Highway 1, extending from Key Largo to Key West, representing the most southerly point of the continental United States. The surrounding water is designated as an Outstanding Florida Water and includes the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, the second largest marine sanctuary in the United States. The Keys are the location of North America's only coral reef and the third largest coral reef system in the world. The Keys are also home to over 30 species of threatened and endangered species and is one of the most ecologically diverse ecosystems in the United States. The regional and statewide resources of the Florida Keys prompted its designation by the Administration Commission as an Area of Critical State Concern in December, 1975 and the Florida Legislature in 1979 (Section 380.0552, F. S.). As required by the State of Florida, the Florida Keys local governments have adopted policies to control growth based on the Florida Keys carrying capacity. The carrying capacity constraint with the lowest threshold is the requirement to maintain hurricane evacuation clearance times at or below 24 hours - in our hurricane prone location. Irma Recovery - Page 1 of 5 The rate and distribution of future growth has been limited by implementing Permit Allocation Systems. The Florida Keys local governments, with the exception of Key Colony Beach, have adopted a performance -based allocation system for both residential development and commercial development because of the requirement to maintain a 24-hour hurricane evacuation clearance time, environmental needs including water quality and habitat protection, as well as to maintain and enhance the community character. The Permit Allocation Systems create a competitive permit allocation system whereby those applications with the highest scores are awarded building permits. After a hurricane evacuation clearance time study in 2012, the State of Florida provided 3,550 allocations for a period of 10 years (355 per year) to the local governments as follows: Total Annual Allocations Market Rate Allocations Affordable Allocations Monroe County 197 126 71 * * Marathon 30 24 6 Islamorada 28 22 6 Key West 91 Varies Varies No less than 60% Key Colony Beach 6* n/a n/a Layton 3 n/a n/a * Key Colony Beach does not have a permit allocation system **Monroe County updated Comp Plan to make all affordable housing allocations available for award Based on the State's allocation and rate of distribution, the Florida Keys are anticipated to reach build out in 2023, after which no further development will be permitted. The Florida Keys are a world renowned tourism and resort destination, with a long established commercial and recreational fishing industry and extensive accessible coral reefs which support a large recreational snorkeling and scuba diving industry. The dominant industry throughout the Keys (incorporated and unincorporated areas) is tourism. This segment of the economy has held the lead position in employment in the County for more than 30 years. The tourism industry category of "Hotel/Eat-Drink/Entertainment" includes eating and drinking establishments, hotel/motel space along with seasonal rental properties and entertainment venues such as museums, theaters parks and beaches. This ecosystem is the lifeblood of marine -based tourism and fisheries economy unrivaled in the State of Florida generating over $4B in economic activity. While an economic engine, tourism also increases the costs for public safety, sanitation, additional infrastructure and utilities like water, sewer, power, roads, bridges, sidewalks, lighting, parking, boat ramps, mooring fields, parks and beaches. It also increases the cost of living and the costs of land and housing, and places demands on the environment and the water quality. The Florida Keys face the quadruple impact of high land values, land limited by geographic and environmental features, housing supply limited by controlled growth (the permit allocation systems) and a tourism economy with a prevalence of lower paying service -sector employment. The housing affordability problem of the Florida Keys has widespread economic impacts, including a growing recognition of the important link between an adequate affordable housing supply and economic growth. Many of the business sectors in the Florida Keys, including professional services, retail trade, tourism and health care, find it increasingly difficult to attract and maintain workers. Affordable housing Irma Recovery - Page 2 of 5 has posed and continues to pose a major challenge for local governments, public agencies and the private sector in the Florida Keys. The service and retail industries generate high demand for affordable housing from low income earning workers, while the limited land area and linear geography of the Keys severely limit the potential supply and locations of housing. Furthermore, unlike other areas, working families cannot find affordable housing nearby. As a result, a severe imbalance exists between supply and demand, resulting in escalating housing prices. This imbalance is worsened by a number of other contributing factors, including: • strong demand for second homes which reduces the supply of housing for permanent residents; • conversion of permanent housing for transient use as vacation rentals which reduces the housing supply and increases affordable housing demand; • high construction costs due to transportation costs of goods, limited labor market, and caprock conditions; • higher costs due to regulations and insurance (building standards are among the most rigorous in the State); • limited permit allocations due to hurricane evacuation standards, habitat protection and water quality objectives; and • limited non-profit and private sector capacity for funding assistance and housing production. The need to protect and preserve an adequate inventory of affordable/workforce accessible housing is a continual as well as a growing challenge in the Florida Keys, particularly after the impacts of Hurricane Irma.

The BOCC should review the Committee's recommended definitions for "Workforce" and "Workforce Housing." If the BOCC accepts the Committee's recommendation, it should direct staff to propose any Land Development Code amendments needed to incorporate them. 2. Workforce means individuals or families who are gainfully employed supplying goods and/or services to Monroe County residents or visitors. 3. Workforce Housing means dwelling units for those who derive at least 70% of their income as members of the Workforce in Monroe County and who meet the affordable housing income categories of the Monroe County Code. 4. Based on the current, available data, the Committee believes there is an unmet Workforce Housing need throughout Monroe County, specifically near employment centers. It recommends the BOCC recognize that Monroe County continues to experience a critical Workforce Housing need. The need and demand for Workforce Housing appears most critical for those households at the median, low and very low- income levels and is most severe in the middle and lower Keys. TASK # 3 QUALIFYING & MONITORING DEED RESTRICTED AFFORDABLE HOUSING OCTOBEA 2015AHAC UNANIMOUS CONSENSUS RECOMMENDATIONS The bold language for recommendation #7 below mere suggested refinements that were agreed to by the AHAC at the June 17 meeting. The Committee recommends the BOCC take action to strengthen the County's ability to qualify and monitor deed restricted affordable housing in unincorporated Monroe County. 5. The BOCC should direct staff to continue to build its database of deed -restricted units. 6. The Committee strongly recommends staff coordinate, collaborate and share information with the Monroe County Housing Authority, municipalities, nonprofit entities, and the real estate sector to create a dynamic countywide database, inventory for existing affordable housing. 7. By October 2016, County staff should develop proactive mechanisms including code requirements and fines based on HUD guidelines to enhance the monitoring of affordable housing including consideration of securing the services of the Monroe County Housing Authority, additional County staff or 3`d parry monitoring services or some combination thereof. Funding estimates for such a program should be developed and evaluated by staff and the Monroe County Housing Authority and should be considered in deciding how to develop the most cost effective monitoring and qualifying approach. 8. The Committee strongly recommends staff coordinate and share information with the municipalities in developing these options, with a goal of developing a countywide monitoring mechanism program. 9. The Committee strongly recommends that the County identify and fund an enhanced enforcement program as an essential element for maintaining affordable workforce housing in the County. This program should address compliance and enforcement of deed restricted property to maintain our available housing stock. a) Authorize Code Compliance and/or the Monroe County Tax Collector's Office to more aggressively pursue illegal rentals. b) Require that owner -occupied units be homesteaded. TASK #4 DEVELOP SOLUTIONS FOR RENTAL WORKFORCE HOUSING 10. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and develop comprehensive plan and land development code amendments to create a workforce housing overlay which can be applied to properties (through a map amendment) to provide additional density bonuses for workforce developments that offer only workforce housing rentals in perpetuity on Tier III designated lands. (formerly 4 a.) 11. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and recommend a proactive approach to enhance the enforcement against illegal vacation rentals; tourist housing and vacation rentals of affordable housing units; including additional code compliance staff to focus on short-term rentals and continued partnership with the Monroe County Tax Collector. (formerly 4 b.) 12. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct the Land Authority to evaluate and provide recommendations to the BOCC on utilizing Land Authority funds to buy back expiring deed restrictions in order to preserve rental affordable housing. The Land Authority should consider remaining deed restriction timeframes and make recommendations on potential monetary offers to provide for a range of additional deed restriction years, including a priority for perpetual deed restrictions in order to preserve existing affordable housing. (formerly 4 c.) 13. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and provide recommendations to the BOCC on strategies and best practices for engagement, outreach, public awareness and education to address the NIMBY ("Not in my backyard") sentiment to workforce housing and collaborate with the developers, municipalities, the private and non- profit sectors. (formerly 4 d.) TASKS #5 & #6 DEVELOP INCENTIVES FOR WORKFORCE HOUSING ON TIER 3 PROPERTIES, INCLUDING STRATEGIES FOR INCREASING DENSITY. 14. The AHAC recommends the BOCC consider issuing requests for proposals (RFP) for the development of workforce housing on county -owned land as a key priority. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to collaborate with other public entities which own land in the county and recommend how best to increase and target incentives for leasing back the properties to workforce housing developers. The AHAC also recommends the BOCC direct the Land Authority to prioritize the purchase of additional Tier 3 lands for the development of workforce housing. The BOCC may also consider future RFPs for the development of affordable housing. (formerly 5/6 a.) 15. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate the legal, financial and legislative issues and develop recommendations on the development of a property tax incentive for homeowners that rent a lawfully established existing market rate unit to a member of the workforce in any Tier within the very low, low and median affordable housing income limits and rental rates. (formerly 5/6 b.) 4 16. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate the legal, financial and legislative issues and develop recommendations on the creation of a 10-year tax incentive for the development of only workforce housing. (formerly 516 c.) 17. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to maintain and update the inventory of County owned land that can be used for affordable housing development. (formerly 516 d) 18. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and develop comprehensive plan and land development code amendments to allow property owners of Tier 3 designated lands with an existing market rate dwelling unit to add an accessory workforce housing residential unit which will require the use of an affordable ROGO. Staff should evaluate residential zoning districts, density standards, income levels, maximum size of the accessory workforce housing residential unit and the minimum property size for the development of an accessory residential workforce housing unit. This can be a method to incentivize the development of smaller "starter units" for the workforce. (formerly 516 e.) 19. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and develop comprehensive plan and land development code amendments to create a Workforce Housing overlay for the Planning Commission to recommend and Board of County Commissioners to approve an extra story for the development of an exclusive workforce housing project, up to maximum of 40 feet. (formerly 5/6 f.) 20. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to revise existing Land Development Code Section 130- 161.1 to provide another incentive for the preservation of affordable housing and the development of market rate housing on Improved Subdivision (IS), Tier III properties as follows: "ROGO exemptions transferred under this program may be transferred on a 1 for 1 basis where the to Tier III- single-family residential lots er--�eree within the Improved Subdivision (IS) land use district and the same ROGO planning subarea for the development of single family detached dwelling units. Ha e-eer, -- he -- ttansfets are to be d to , " (formerly 516 &) 21. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate and develop comprehensive plan and land development code amendments to create an additional workforce housing density bonus in the Mixed Use Zoning District to provide additional density only for the development of workforce rental housing in the median, low and very low income categories which is deed restricted in perpetuity and located on Tier 3 designated lands. (formerly 516 h.) TASK # 7 DEVELOP STRATEGIES TO INCREASE THE MONROE COUNTY HOUSING AUTHORITY'S ROLE IN WORKFORCE HOUSING, SPECIFICALLY AS A MANAGEMENT ENTITY FOR RENTAL WORKFORCE HOUSING See Task 3, Recommendations 7-9 that address this Task. TASK # 8 EXPLORE AND PROPOSE LOCAL FUNDING SOURCES TO HELP EXPAND WORKFORCE HOUSING IN MONROE COUNTY Unquestionably these recommendations will be costly, in developing these recommendations, the AHAC believes from the past 12 months of discussions that the Commission should set a 10-year target of raising at least $10 million annually from local funding sources to help expand workforce housing in Monroe County and address the unmet Workforce Housing need throughout Monroe County, specifically near employment centers. 22. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate the legal, financial and operational issues and make recommendations on whether and how to establish an annual fee on non -primary residences that are not utilized as long-term rentals (6 month rentals or greater) to be dedicated to supporting workforce housing and the enforcement of regulations. (formerly 8.a.1) 23. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate the legal, statutory, financial and operational issues and make recommendations on whether and how to establish a property tax exemption for non - primary residences that rent their residence for not less than 6 months (long term) to a member of the Monroe County workforce. Every property owner claiming the additional reduction in assessed value must annually file an application with the Monroe County Property Appraiser, including documentation and affidavit regarding the qualifying workforce housing occupant of the residence for the year in which the reduction is sought. (formerly 8.a2) 24. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to evaluate the legislative, economic and financial issues, including and take the necessary steps and make recommendations on whether and how to propose to statutory amendments to increase by 1 penny the Tourist Impact Tax to provide additional dedicated funding for the acquisition of land for workforce housing and construction of workforce housing in Monroe County. Evaluate including a sunset date of 10 years. (Formerly 8-b 1) 25. The AHAC recommends the BOCC direct staff to engage with the Community Foundation of the Florida Keys(CFFK), municipalities, and the business and tourist sector in Monroe County to establish a community workforce housing fund administered by the FKCF that can provide additional dedicated funding for workforce housing in Monroe County and rental assistance loans. (Formerly 8 d.) 26.
