AGENDA ITEM WORDING: A public hearing to consider an ordinance by the Monroe County
Board of County Commissioners amending the Monroe County Future Land Use Map as a small-
scale comprehensive plan amendment pursuant to Section 163.3187, Florida Statutes, from
Residential High (RH) and Residential Conservation (RC) to Mixed Use / Commercial (MC), for
property located at 21585 Old State Road 4A, Cudjoe Key, having real estate 4 00174960-000000,
as proposed by Smith Hawks, PL on behalf of Mobile Homes Holdings Coco, LLC; contingent on
adoption and effectiveness of proposed Subarea Policy 107.1.7 of the Comprehensive Plan to
provide limitation on development and specific restrictions on the subject property. (File 42018-051)
ITEM BACKGROUND: On March 12, 2018, the Planning and Environmental Resources
Department received an application from Smith Hawks, PL on behalf of Mobile Home Holdings
Coco, LLC (the "Applicant") to amend the Monroe County Future Land Use Map (FLUM) from
Residential High (RH; 1.1 acres) and Residential Conservation (RC; 0.6 acres) to Mixed Use /
Commercial (MC; 1.7 acres) for a portion of property located at 21585 Old State Road 4A on
Cudjoe Key. The Applicant has also requested a corresponding Land Use District (Zoning) map
amendment for the subject property from Urban Residential Mobile Home (URM; 1.1 acres) and
Native Area (NA; 0.6 acres) to Suburban Commercial (SC; 1.7 acres) and a Comprehensive Plan
text amendment to create a subarea policy that would provide additional development restrictions on
the subject parcel, including a limitation that the only permitted use on the property would be
affordable housing and accessory uses. The proposed subarea policy and FLUM amendment would
be processed as "small-scale comprehensive plan amendments" pursuant to Section 163.3187,
Florida Statutes, based on the size of the site and the limitation of development to affordable
housing.

Existing FLUM Designation
Proposed FLUM Designation
The proposed FLUM and a corresponding Zoning amendment are also scheduled for public hearing
before the BOCC at the February 20, 2019 regular meeting.
In the application materials, the Applicant states that the reason for the proposed amendments is to
limit the Property's permitted uses to affordable housing and accessory structures and uses, and to
allow an increased density necessary to develop an additional sixteen (16) units of affordable
housing.
In accordance with LDC Sections 102-158(a) and 102-159(b), a community meeting was held on
May 31, 2018 at 5:30 PM to discuss the proposed Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment, and
corresponding Comprehensive Plan text amendment and Land Use District (Zoning) Map
amendment, and provide for public participation.
The proposed FLUM amendment and associated text and Zoning amendments were reviewed by the
Monroe County Development Review Committee at a public meeting on May 29, 2018. At a regular
meeting on July 25, 2018 the Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the
proposed FLUM amendment and corresponding subarea policy and LUD map amendments and
provided for public comment. The Planning Commission considered the application, the staff
report, and the comments from the public in their discussion, and recommended approval with
changes, as discussed at the public hearing, of the proposed FLUM amendment through
Resolution P26-18. The changes requested related to the text amendment to the Comprehensive
Plan that would create a sub area policy for the property. The changes requested that the sixteen (16)
new units would consist of five (5) moderate income, five (5) median income and six (6) low income
affordable allocations.

*Per the submitted survey by Frederick H. Hildebrandt, dated 12/5/2017, the site has 2.30 acres
(100,359 st) of upland.
"The proposed subarea policy to accompany this proposed FLUM amendment would eliminate all
permanent and transient allocated density and all nonresidential intensity on the site. Per the proposed
subarea policy, the only density on the site would be a maximum net density of 18 dwelling units per
buildable acre for affordable housing units, which would bring the maximum development potential
for the site to 33 deed restricted affordable dwelling units.
As shown in the orange portion of the table, the proposed FLUM amendment with the proposed
Subarea Policy would result in a decrease of 9 units in permanent allocated residential development
potential; a decrease of 18 units in max net density residential potential for market rate units with the
use of TDRs; an increase of 3 units in affordable residential development potential; a decrease of 23
rooms or spaces for transient units; and a decrease in nonresidential development potential of 20,535
square feet.
Any proposed new residential use would be subject to the requirements of Chapter 138 of the Land
Development Code related to the Residential Rate of Growth Ordinance (ROGO/NROGO) permit
process. Any proposed affordable dwelling units would need to obtain a ROGO allocation
(affordable ROGO allocations may be available) prior to issuance of a building permit.
Assuming the BOCC approves the proposed comprehensive plan amendment, the executed
ordinances will be filed with the Secretary of State. Pursuant to Section 163.3187, F.S., a small
scale amendment may not become effective until 31 days after adoption and any affected person
may file a petition with the Division of Administrative Hearings pursuant to Sections 120.569 and
120.57, F.S., to request a hearing to challenge the compliance of a small scale development
amendment with this act within 30 days following the local government's adoption of the
amendment.

I The property currently has a Land Use District (Zoning) designation of Suburban Commercial (SC),
2 Urban Residential Mobile Home (URM) and Native Area (NA) and a Future Land Use Map
3 (FLUM) designation of Mixed Use / Commercial (MC), Residential High (RH) and Residential
4 Conservation (RC). The property was partially within a BU-2 district (Medium Business) and RU-5P
5 (mobile Home Park Residential) prior to September 15, 1986. The mobile home park area of the site
6 was entirely within the RU-5P district. With the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan's FLUM in
7 1997, the property was given the current FLUM designation of Mixed Use/Commercial (MC),
8 Residential High (RH) and Residential Conservation (RC).
9
10 The property was historically used as a mobile home and RV park (Rainbow's End Trailer Park) and
11 restaurant (Coco's Cantina) dating back to the 1970s. The property is currently developed with 17
12 mobile homes and mostly scarified land. In the shoreline area of the property, there is mangrove
13 habitat (based on GIS habitat data). A vegetation survey/existing conditions report was not
14 submitted with the application to confirm the habitats.
15
16 The Applicant is also requesting a text amendment to the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan to
17 establish a site specific subarea policy to accompany the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment
18 for a portion of the property (the "Property") from Residential Conservation (RC) and Residential
19 High (RH) to Mixed Use/Commercial (MC) and a proposed Land Use District (Zoning) Map
20 amendment for a portion of the property from Urban Residential Mobile Home (URM) and Native
21 Area (NA) to Suburban Commercial (SC). The subject of this staff report is the proposed FLUM
22 amendment.
23
24 The Applicant states that the reason for the proposed amendments is to limit the Property's permitted
25 uses to affordable housing and accessory structures and uses, and to allow an increased density
26 necessary to develop an additional sixteen (16) units of affordable housing. The Applicant cites the
27 following documents/data:
28 1. Florida Housing data compiled by the University of Florida; and
29 2. Monroe County Affordable Housing Report dated November 2007.
30 This data indicates that in 2009, 37% of Monroe County households pay more than 30% of their
31 income for housing and 18% of Monroe County households pay more than 30% of their income for
32 housings.
33
34 The Applicant's full explanation and justification of the proposed amendments is included in the file
35 for the application (File 42018-051).
36
37 Staff has reviewed the Applicant's position and supporting documentation, and agrees with the
38 position that inadequate availability of affordable housing is currently a primary issue facing
39 permanent residents of unincorporated Monroe County. In 2015, the BOCC acknowledged the
40 County's workforce housing issues and adopted Resolution 189-2015, assigning additional duties to
41 the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee directing the committee to make recommendations for
42 steps the County may take to address the need for more workforce housing options. The committee
43 presented their recommendations to the BOCC at their regular meeting on August 17, 2016. The
44 BOCC held a special meeting on December 6, 2016, to discuss the recommendations, and provided
I According to HUD, "cost -burdened" households pay more than 30% of their income for rent or mortgage costs.

Additionally, Monroe County suffered the loss of a significant number of housing units due to
damage caused by Hurricane Irma on September 10, 2017. The BOCC has acknowledged that the
pre-existing affordable housing issues facing the County are even greater and more immediate now
due to storm -related losses.

I As noted, this amendment is being proposed as a small scale amendment. Section 163.3187, F.S.,
2 establishes the process for adoption of a small-scale comprehensive plan amendment and provides
3 the limitations and requirements (see below).
4
5 (1) A small scale development amendment may be adopted under the following conditions:
6 (a) The proposed amendment involves a use of 10 acres or fewer and:
7 (b) The cumulative annual effect of the acreage for all small scale development
8 amendments adopted by the local government does not exceed a maximum of 120 acres
9 in a calendar year.
10 (c) The proposed amendment does not involve a text change to the goals, policies, and
11 objectives of the local government's comprehensive plan, but only proposes a land use
12 change to the future land use map for a site -specific small scale development activity.
13 However, text changes that relate directly to, and are adopted simultaneously with, the
14 small scale future land use map amendment shall be permissible under this section.
15 (d) The property that is the subject of the proposed amendment is not located within an area
16 of critical state concern, unless the project subject to the proposed amendment
17 involves the construction of affordable housing units meeting the criteria of s.
18 420.0004(3), and is located within an area of critical state concern designated by s.
19 380.0552 or by the Administration Commission pursuant to s. 380.05(1).
20
21 (2) Small scale development amendments adopted pursuant to this section require only one
22 public hearing before the governing board, which shall be an adoption hearing as described in s.
23 163.3184(11).
24
25
26 (4) Comprehensive plans may only be amended in such a way as to preserve the internal
27 consistency of the plan pursuant to s. 163.3177. Corrections, updates, or modifications of
28 current costs which were set out as part of the comprehensive plan shall not, for the purposes of
29 this act, be deemed to be amendments.
30
31 While staff agrees with the position that inadequate availability of affordable housing is currently a
32 primary issue facing unincorporated Monroe County, staff is also reviewing the proposed
33 amendment for consistency with State Statutes (including 163.3187, F.S., above), Rules, internal
34 consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and balancing all the requirements and policy issues.
35
36 Community Meeting and Public Participation
37 In accordance with LDC Sections 102-158(a) and 102-159(b), a community meeting was held on
38 May 31, 2018 at 5:30 PM to discuss the proposed Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment, and
39 corresponding Comprehensive Plan text amendment and Land Use District (Zoning) Map
40 amendment, and provide for public participation.
41
42 Development Review Committee and Public Input
43 At a regular meeting held on May 29, 2018, the Development Review Committee (DRC) considered
44 the proposed Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment, and corresponding Comprehensive Plan
45 text amendment and Land Use District (Zoning) Map amendment, and provided for public comment.
46 The DRC recommended approval through Resolution 25-18.

*Per the submitted survey by Frederick H. Hildebrandt, dated 12/5/2017, the site has 2.30 acres (100,359 sf) of
upland.
**The proposed subarea policy to accompany this proposed FLUM amendment would eliminate all permanent and
transient allocated density and all nonresidential intensity on the site. Per the proposed subarea policy, the only
density on the site would be a maximum net density of 18 dwelling units per buildable acre for affordable housing
units, which would bring the maximum development potential for the site to 33 deed restricted affordable dwelling
units.
2 The above table provides an approximation of the development potential for residential, transient
3 and commercial development. Section 130-156(b) of the Land Development Code states: "The
4 density and intensity provisions set out in this section are intended to be applied cumulatively so that
5 no development shall exceed the total density limits of this article. For example, if a development

includes both residential and commercial development, the total gross amount of development shall
not exceed the cumulated permitted intensity of the parcel proposed for development."
As shown in the blue portion of the table, the proposed FLUM amendment without the proposed
Subarea Policy would result in an increase of 4 units in permanent allocated residential development
potential; an increase of 15 units in max net density residential potential for market rate units with
the use of TDRs; an increase of 3 units in affordable residential development potential; an increase
of 11 rooms or spaces for transient units; and a increase in nonresidential development potential of
39,680 square feet.
As shown in the orange portion of the table, the proposed FLUM amendment with the
proposed Subarea Policy would result in a decrease of 9 units in permanent allocated
residential development potential; a decrease of 18 units in max net density residential
potential for market rate units with the use of TDRs; an increase of 3 units in affordable
residential development potential; a decrease of 23 rooms or spaces for transient units; and a
decrease in nonresidential development potential of 20,535 square feet.
Any proposed new residential use would be subject to the requirements of Chapter 138 of the Land
Development Code related to the Residential Rate of Growth Ordinance (ROGO/NROGO) permit
process. Any proposed affordable dwelling units would need to obtain a ROGO allocation
(affordable ROGO allocations may be available) prior to issuance of a building permit.
23 Compliance with Comprehensive Plan Policy 101.5.26
24 Policy 101.5.26 (discouragement policy) of the Comprehensive Plan was adopted by the BOCC on
25 September 21, 2012, with an effective date of November 20, 2012, and would apply to this
26 application for a FLUM amendment if it were not accompanied by the proposed subarea policy.
27 Private applications which propose increases in allocated density must comply with the Policy
28 requirements.
As stated earlier, the applicant's proposed Subarea Policy would eliminate any increase in residential
allocated density and development potential and therefore eliminate the need to mitigate under
Policy 101.5.26.
Compatibility with the Surrounding Area
a. Existing Vegetation/Habitat: Developed land; Mangrove habitat; Buttonwood habitat
b. Existing Tier Designation: III
c. Number of Listed Endangered or Threatened Species: four
d. Existing Use: 17 deed -restricted affordable mobile homes
e. Community Character of Immediate Vicinity: Mixed Use. Adjacent land uses include vacant
land to the west, open water to the north, commercial and residential uses to the east, and
single-family and multi -family residential uses to the south across US1.
The proposed FLUM is not anticipated to adversely impact the community character of the
surrounding area.

Traffic Circulation (Comprehensive Plan Policy 301.1.1)
The subject property is located on Old State Road 4A on Cudjoe Key at approximate mile marker
22. The property is only accessible by Old State Road 4A via US 1. Pursuant to the Comprehensive
Plan, the level of service standard for US 1 is LOS of "C." According to the 2017 US 1 Arterial
Travel Time and Delay Study, US 1 overall is operating at a LOS of "C" and Segment 6 on Cudjoe
Key (MM 20.5 to MM 23) is operating at a LOS of "A."
A trip generation analysis submitted by the Applicant states that a development of 16 additional
residential units on the site would generate an additional 149 daily trips. According to the 2017 US
1 Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study, the maximum reserve volume for Segment 6 is 3,188 trips.
The maximum reserve volume for US 1 as a whole is 18,547 trips.
A Level II traffic study is required; as the trip generation analysis shows a total 308 gross daily trips
for 33 dwelling units. The proposed FLUMand Level II traffic study will be reviewed to determine if
there are any anticipated adverse impacts to the Traffic Circulation LOS.
Potable Water (Comprehensive Plan Policy 701.1.1)
Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority's water treatment facility in Florida City has a maximum water
treatment design capacity of 29.8 million gallons per day (MGD) and is capable of treating up to
23.8 MGD. There are also two saltwater Reserve Osmosis (RO) plants, located on Stock Island and
Marathon, which are able to produce potable water under emergency conditions. The RO
desalination plants have design capacities of 2.0 and 1.0 MGD of water, respectively. The annual
average daily demand in Monroe County is 17.76 MGD.
The proposed FLUM amendment could result in a net increase in demand from this site of up to
36,512 gallons per day if developed to its maximum residential intensity. Currently there is sufficient
capacity for such an increase.

Solid Waste (Comprehensive Plan Policy 801.1.1)
Monroe County has a contract with Waste Management authorizing the use of in -state facilities
through September 30, 2024; thereby, providing the County with approximately six (6) more years of
guaranteed capacity for solid waste. Currently, there is adequate capacity for solid waste generation.
All commercial solid waste is handled by private contract.
The proposed FLUMis not anticipated to adversely impact the Solid Waste LOS.
Sanitary Sewer (Comprehensive Plan Policy 901.1.1
The County has adopted water quality treatment standards for wastewater facilities and within the
Sanitary Wastewater Treatment Master Plan, Exhibit 3-8, has stated the LOS standard for residential
and nonresidential flow is 145 gallons per day per equivalent dwelling unit (EDU). The proposed
FLUM amendment with the proposed subarea policy would increase the maximum net residential
density for affordable housing on the site by 33 dwelling units, which would increase the required
flow by 4,785 gallons per day. Any proposed development on the site will either need to connect to
the Cudjoe Regional Wastewater system, or provide on -site sewage treatment and disposal that
meets the LOS standards in Policy 901.1.1.
The proposed FLUM is not anticipated to adversely impact the Sanitary Sewer LOS.
V. CONSISTENCY WITH THE MONROE COUNTY YEAR 2030 COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN, THE LOWER KEYS LIVABLE COMMUNIKEYS PLAN, THE FLORIDA
STATUTES, AND PRINCIPLES FOR GUIDING DEVELOPMENT
A. The proposed amendment is consistent with the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the
Monroe County Year 2030 Comprehensive Plan (Note: compliance with Policy 101.5.26 must
be established prior to BOCC adoption of the proposed FLUM amendment). Specifically, it
furthers:
Goal 101: Monroe County shall manage future growth to enhance the quality of life, ensure the
safety of County residents and visitors, and protect valuable natural resources.
Objective 101.3
Monroe County shall regulate new residential development based upon the finite carrying
capacity of the natural and man-made systems and the growth capacity while maintaining a
maximum hurricane evacuation clearance time of 24 hours.
Policy 101.3.3
Monroe County shall allocate at least 20% of the annual allocation, or as may be established by
the State of Florida, pursuant to Administration Commission Rules, to affordable housing units
as part of ROGO. Any portion of the allocations not used for affordable housing shall be retained
and be made available for affordable housing from ROGO year to ROGO year. Affordable
housing eligible for this separate allocation shall meet the criteria specified in Policy 601.1.4 and
the Land Development Code, but shall not be subject to the competitive Residential Permit
Allocation and Point System in Policy 101.6.4. Any parcel proposed for affordable housing shall

4 Objective 101.5
5 Monroe County shall regulate future development and redevelopment to maintain and enhance
6 the character of the community and protect natural resources by providing for the compatible
7 distribution of land uses consistent with the designations shown on the Future Land Use Map.
8
Policy 101.5.6
The principal purpose of the Mixed Use/Commercial (MC) future land use category is to provide
for the establishment of mixed use commercial land use (zoning) districts where various types of
commercial retail and office may be permitted at intensities which are consistent with the
community character and the natural environment. Employee housing and commercial
apartments are also permitted. In addition, Mixed Use/Commercial land use districts are to
establish and conserve areas of mixed uses, which may include maritime industry, light industrial
uses, commercial fishing, transient and permanent residential, institutional, public, and
commercial retail uses.
This future land use category is also intended to allow for the establishment of mixed use
development patterns, where appropriate. Various types of residential and nonresidential uses
may be permitted; however, heavy industrial uses and similarly incompatible uses shall be
prohibited. The County shall continue to take a proactive role in encouraging the preservation
and enhancement of community character and recreational and commercial working waterfronts.
23 In order to protect environmentally sensitive lands, the following development controls shall
24 apply to all hammocks, pinelands, and disturbed wetlands within this land use category:
25 1. only low intensity commercial uses shall be allowed;
26 2. a maximum floor area ratio of 0.10 shall apply to nonresidential development; and
27 3. maximum net residential density shall be zero.
28
29 In order to preserve and promote recreational and commercial working waterfront uses, as
30 defined by [Section] 342.07, F.S., the following criteria shall apply to all lands designated with
31 the Maritime Industries (MI) land use (zoning) district within this land use category:
32 1. When a mixture of uses is proposed for parcels designated as MI land use (zoning) district,
33 working waterfront and water dependent uses, such as marina, fish house/market, boat repair,
34 boat building, boat storage, or other similar uses but excluding transient uses, shall be
35 preserved by maintaining a minimum of 35% of the upland area of the property for those
36 uses.
37 To incentivize additional preservation of recreational and commercial working waterfront
38 uses, the following shall be available:
39 i. For the preservation of 3650% of the upland area of property for working waterfront
40 and water dependent uses, up to 20,000 square feet of nonresidential floor area from the
41 NROGO bank shall be provided to the property; and
BOCC SR 01.23.19 Page 14 of 23
File No. 2018-051
Packet Pg. 1886
R.2.a
I ii. For the preservation of 50% or more of the upland area of property for working
2 waterfront and water dependent uses, the residential density on the property may be
3 developed pursuant to the maximum net density standard without the use of TDRs.
4 2. Parcels within the MI zoning district that have existing wet slips shall preserve at least 20%
5 of the wet slips for vessels involved with recreational and commercial working waterfront
6 uses, excluding live -aboard vessels solely used as a residence and not for navigation.
7 3. Parcels within the MI zoning district creating new wet slips shall preserve at least 10% of the
8 wet slips for vessels involved with recreational and commercial working waterfront uses,
9 excluding live -aboard vessels solely used as a residence and not for navigation.
10 4. The preservation of dockage for recreational and commercial working waterfront uses shall
11 be documented on the final development plan and shall be a written condition of any permit
12 approval.
13 5. For permanent residential development, parcels within the MI zoning district shall be limited
14 to commercial apartments or employee housing. Commercial apartment means an attached or
15 detached residential dwelling unit located on the same parcel of land as a nonresidential use
16 that is intended to serve as permanent housing for the owner or employees of that
17 nonresidential use. The term does not include a tourist housing use or vacation rental use.
18 6. The preservation of a public access walkway, and a public access boat launch if one already
19 exists, shall be required for all parcels with direct access to the water. Consideration shall be
20 given to security and the physical constraints of the parcel. The public access walkway shall
21 be documented on the final development plan to link a continuous walkway and shall be a
22 written condition of any permit approval.
23 7. Parcels within the MI zoning district shall be limited to commercial retail uses of less than
24 5,000 square feet of floor area.

Goal 102: Monroe County shall direct future growth to lands which are most suitable for
development and shall encourage conservation and protection of environmentally sensitive lands
(wetlands, beach berm and tropical hardwood hammock).
Policy 105.2.1
Monroe County shall designate all lands outside of mainland Monroe County, except for the
Ocean Reef planned development, into three general categories for purposes of its Land
Acquisition Program and smart growth initiatives in accordance with the criteria in Policy
205.1.1. These three categories are: Natural Area (Tier 1); Transition and Sprawl Reduction
Area (Tier II) on Big Pine Key and No Name Key only; and Infill Area (Tier III). The purposes,
general characteristics, and growth management approaches associated with each tier are as
follows:
3. Infill Area (Tier III): Any defined geographic area, where a significant portion of
land area is not characterized as environmentally sensitive as defined by this Plan,
except for dispersed and isolated fragments of environmentally sensitive lands of
less than four acres in area, where existing platted subdivisions are substantially
developed, served by complete infrastructure facilities, and within close proximity
to established commercial areas, or where a concentration of nonresidential uses
exists, is to be designated as an Infill Area. New development and redevelopment
are to be highly encouraged, except within tropical hardwood hammock or
pineland patches of an acre or more in area, where development is to be
discouraged. Within an Infill Area are typically found: platted subdivisions with
50 percent or more developed lots situated in areas with few sensitive
environmental features; full range of available public infrastructure in terms of
paved roads, potable water, and electricity; and concentrations of commercial and
other nonresidential uses within close proximity. In some Infill Areas, a mix of
nonresidential and high -density residential uses (generally 8 units or more per
acre) may also be found that form a Community Center.
Policy 105.2.2
Monroe County shall maintain overlay map(s) designating geographic areas of the County as one
of the Tiers in accordance with the guidance in Policy 105.2.1, which shall be incorporated as an
overlay on the zoning map(s) with supporting text amendments in the Land Development
Regulations. These maps are to be used to guide the Land Acquisition Program and the smart
growth initiatives in conjunction with the Livable CommuniKeys Program (Policy 101.19.1).
GOAL 203
The health and integrity of living marine resources and marine habitat, including mangroves,
seagrasses, coral reefs, other hard bottom communities and fisheries, shall be protected and,
where possible, restored and enhanced. [§163.3177(6)d.2.d., F.S.; §163.3177(6)d.2.e., F.S.;

Policy 203.1.2
Monroe County shall require minimum vegetated setbacks of fifty (50) feet to be maintained as
an open space buffer for development occurring adjacent to all types of wetlands except for
tidally inundated mangrove fringes and as provided for in Policy 204.2.3, 204.2.4 and 204.2.5. If
a 50-foot setback results in less than 2,000 square feet of principal structure footprint of
reasonable configuration, then the setback may be reduced to allow for 2,000 square feet of
principal structure footprint of reasonable configuration, provided that the setback is not reduced
to less than twenty-five (25) feet. On properties classified as scarified adjacent to wetlands, the
wetland setback may be reduced to twenty-five (25) feet, without regard to buildable area, if the
entire setback is managed in accordance with County regulations approved by the County
Biologist and is placed under conservation easement. [§163.3177(6)d.2.d., F.S.;

adoption. If challenged within 30 days after adoption, small scale development
amendments may not become effective until the state land planning agency or the
Administration Commission, respectively, issues a final order determining that the
adopted small scale development amendment is in compliance.
(d) In all challenges under this subsection, when a determination of compliance as
defined in s. 163.3184(1)(b) is made, consideration shall be given to the plan amendment
as a whole and whether the plan amendment furthers the intent of this part.
163.3201, F.S. — Relationship of comprehensive plan to exercise of land development regulatory
authority. It is the intent of this act that adopted comprehensive plans or elements thereof
shall be implemented, in part, by the adoption and enforcement of appropriate local
regulations on the development of lands and waters within an area. It is the intent of this act
that the adoption and enforcement by a governing body of regulations for the development of
land or the adoption and enforcement by a governing body of a land development code for an
area shall be based on, be related to, and be a means of implementation for an adopted
comprehensive plan as required by this act.
