AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of a Resolution authorizing the placement of temporary
emergency housing for emergency relief workers for 3 years on property located at 157 Toppino
Industrial Drive, Rockland Key with Parcel ID 00121980-000500, as requested by Charley Toppino
& Sons, Inc.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
The Monroe County Mayor declared a State of Local Emergency on September 5, 2017 due to
Hurricane Irma, a "threat of danger to the populace inhabiting Monroe County" and that the County
"may require expedient action in order to protect the health, safety and welfare of the community."
At 9:10 a.m. on September 10, 2017, Hurricane Irma made landfall near Cudjoe Key as a Category 4
Hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 130 mph. Significant damage has occurred to the
housing stock.
The damage caused by Hurricane Irma has displaced a large population of County residents, which
has greatly increased the demand for repairs and replacement housing. Due to this increased demand
coupled with the limited resources and labor market, timeframes for repairs and redevelopment are
being projected beyond the duration allowed for Temporary Emergency Housing by the Monroe
County Comprehensive Plan and Monroe County Code. In addition, there is demand for temporary
housing for emergency relief workers involved in reconstruction activities.
ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to Monroe County Land Development Code Section 103-1(e), temporary emergency
housing may be provided for temporary occupancy by emergency relief workers involved in
reconstruction activities subject to certain conditions and approval of a resolution of the BOCC
authorizing the placement and duration of the temporary housing for relief workers.
LDC Sec. 103-1(e)(7):
The only persons permitted to reside for any period in temporary emergency housing for relief
workers are individuals who are gainfully employed on a fulltime basis in completing cleanup and
Packet Pg. 1160

reconstruction efforts following a natural or manmade disaster. All residents of temporary
emergency housing for relief workers who were not permanent residents of the county prior to first
occupying such housing facilities will be required to evacuate in accordance with local evacuation
orders. Residents of any temporary emergency housing for relief workers who were permanent
residents of the county prior to first occupying such housing facilities may not remain in
temporary emergency housing for relief workers during any period when a local evacuation order
is in effect.
The proposed resolution specifies the location, duration, type of temporary emergency housing and
gainful employment of emergency relief workers. The Applicant has requested approval for the
temporary placement of twenty (20) construction trailers for a duration of 36 months.
The relief workers are proposed to work on six `associated projects' listed below.
1. Little Palm Island Demo and Wastewater Treatment Plant-Parcel ID 4 00107880-000000
`The Relief work at this site includes the demolition of structures damaged by the storm,
removal of debris from the property, re-nourishment of beach sand depleted by the storm,
installation of necessary rip rap, and installation of a Wastewater Treatment plant.'
2. Dolphin Marina Demo- Parcel ID 4 00113590-000000
`The Relief work at this site includes the demolition of structures damaged by the storm,
removal of debris from the property; Site work infrastructure required for restoration, and a
new parking lot and drainage.'
3. St. Bede's Demo& Sitework-Parcel ID 4 00065090-000000
`The Relief work at this site includes the removal of trees and foliage, the necessary
installation of water and sewage enhancements, site restoration and preparation, grading and
drainage.'
4. NAS Boca Chica Irma Repairs- Metal Building-Parcel ID 4 00122490-000000
`The Relief work associated with this site is the removal of a building that was detrimentally
damaged during Irma.'
5. Dagny Johnson State Park Restoration-Parcel ID 4 00081980-000300
`The Relief work associated with this property includes the refilling of an existing quarry pit,
which was damaged during Irma and subsequently emptied.'

`The relief work associated with this property includes the demolition, restoration, and site
preparation of property damaged during Irma, building a new bathroom facility, rebuilding
and restoring a roadway that was damaged during Irma, building a new parking lot, and
replacing necessary rip rap.'
Therefore, the above listed projects meet the requirements to have emergency temporary
relief worker housing.
