The Honorable George Neugent, Mayor
Monroe County Board of County Commissioners
25 Ships Way
Big Pine Key, Florida 33043
Dear Mayor Neugent:
JUL Z7=
The Department has completed its review of the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan
amendments (DCA No. 09-1) adopted by Ordinances 017a-2009, 018-2009, 019-2009, 020-
2009, 021-2009 and 022-2009 on June 2, 2009. The Department has determined that Ordinances
017a-200% 019-2009, 020-2009, 021-2009 and 022-2009 are "in compliance" as defined by
Section 163.3184(I)(b), Florida Statutes. The Department has determined that Ordinance 018-
2009 is "not in compliance" with the requirements of Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Sta"es
(F.S.), Chapter 390, Part 1, F. S., and Rule W-5, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). The
Department is issuing a Statement of Intent and Notice of Intent to find a portion of the
Amendment package "not in compliance." The Notice of Intent has been sent to the Key West
Citizen for publication on July 27, 2009.
The future land use map amendment adopted by Ordinance 018-2009 is not in
compliance because the map amendment is not consistent with the goals, objections and policies
within the elements of the comprehensive plan. The map amendment is inconsistent with the
Smart Growth policies and the Tier System of the comprehensive plan which describe the finite
capacity for new development without compromising the biodiversity of the natural environment
as well as direct the preponderance of future development to Tier Iil designated areas. The
enclosed Statement of Intent further describes the specific issues resulting in the "not in
compliance" finding as well as recommended remedial actions.
Please note that a copy of the adopted amendment and the Department's Statement of
Intent and Notice of Intent to find the amendment not in compliance must be available for public
inspection Monday through Friday, except for legal holidays, during normal business hours, at
the Monroe County, Planning Department, 2799 Overseas Highway, Marathon, Florida 33050.
In addition, Section 163.3194 (Sxc)2, F.S., requires a local government that has an Internet site
to post a copy of the Department's Notice of Intent on the site within 5 days after receipt of the
mailed copy of the Notice of Intent.

and your staff at your convenience for the purpose of developing an acceptable solution to the
not in compliance finding.

AMENDMENT 09-1; ORDINANCE
tElt 018-2009 AMENDING THE FUTURE�ocket No. 09-1-NOI-4401-(A)-(N)
• n • I
• FEW :.
The Florida Department of Community Affairs, pursuant to Section 163.3184(10),
Florida Statutes, and Rule 9J-11.012(4 Florida Administrative Code, hereby issues this
Statement of Intent regarding the Comprehensive Plan amendment adopted by Monroe County
Ordinance Number 018-2009 on June 2, 2009, not "incompliance." The Department finds the
Comprehensive Plan amendment not "in compliance," based upon the Objections,
Recommendations and Comments Report (ORC Report) issued by the Department on April 7,
2009, which is hereby incorporated by reference. The Department finds that the Comprehensive
Plan amendment is not "in compliance" as defined in Section 163.3184(lxb), Florida Statutes,
because the amendment is not consistent with Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statutes, the State
Comprehensive Plan, Rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, and Chapter 380, Part I, Florida
Statutes for the following reasons;
1. FUTURE LAND USE MAP (FLUM) CHANGES
A. Inconsistent provisions. The amendment does not meet the requirements of Rule 91-
5.005(5)(b), F.A.C., which requires that each map depicting future conditions reflect the
goals, objections and policies within all elements of the comprehensive plan. The
amendment is internally inconsistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan and inconsistent
with Chapter 163, Part 11, F.S., Rule 9J-5, F.A.C., and Chapter 380, Part 1, F.S., for the
reasons noted:
F .
I. The significant environment of the Florida Keys prompted its designation by the Florida
Legislature as an Area of Critical State Concern in December, 1975. The Florida Keys
are the location of North America's only coral reef and home to over 30 species of
threatened and endangered species of flora and fauna. Monroe County's Goals,
Objectives and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan have multiple adopted strategies to
protect significant resources and regulate growth, such as the Future Land Use Map
designations, der overlay designations and a competitive point system for residential and
non-residential growth.
Ordinance 01 8-2009 amended the Future Land Use designation for two adjacent parcels
under common ownership [western portion (8.46 acres) of the larger parcel and the
entire smaller parcel (3.0I acres)) from Residential Low (RL) to Mixed -Use
Commercial (MC). Both parcels are designated Tier I and are surrounded by Tier I
designated lands. These neighboring and adjacent Tier I designated lands include
tropical hardwood hammock, freshwater wetlands, saltmersh and buttonwood vegetation
and habitat for the endangered Key Mud Turtle (Kinosternon baurii) and Key Deer
(Odocolkus virghtianus ctavium).
Monroe County Comprehensive Plan Policy 105.2.1 defines Tier I as an area
"characterized as environmentally sensitive by the policies of this Plan and applicable
habitat conservation plan, is to be designated as a Natural Area. New development on
vacant land is to be severely restricted and privately owned vacant lands are to be
acquired or development rights retired for resource conservation and passive recreation
purposes." Monroe County Comprehensive Plan Goal 105 and Policies 105.1.5 and
105.1.6 implement smart growth policies and recognize the finite capacity for new
development without compromising the biodiversity of the natural environment and the
continued ability of the natural and manmade systems to sustain livable communities as
well as direct the preponderance of future development to areas designated as an overlay
on the zoning map(s) as Int3ll (Tier 11I).
r'
Ordinance 019-2009 (Future Land Use Map amendment) allows additional development
potential in a location of important vegetative communities that are the known locations
of listed federal, state, or local species of concem. One of the criteria for designating
land as Tier 1 is the known locations of threatened and endangered species. Increasing
the residential density and commercial intensity of this parcel designated Tier 1 and
surrounded by Tier I designated lands is internally inconsistent with Monroe County
Comprehensive Plan Goal 105 and Policies 105.1.5 and 105.1.6. Further, the Future
Land Use Map amendment is inconsistent with Section 163.3177(2), F.S., and Rule
9J.5-005(5), F.A.C., which requires that the Comprehensive Plan be implemented in a
consistent manner and each reap depicting future conditions reflect the goals, objections
and policies within all elements of the comprehensive plan.
Ordinance 019-2009 is inconsistent with Section 380.0552(7), Florida Statutes,
Principles for Guiding Development (a): to strengthen local government capabilities for
managing land use and development so that local government is able to achieve these
objectives without the continuation of the area of critical state concern designation; (b):
to protect shoreline and marine resources, including mangroves, coral reef formations,
sea grass beds, wetlands, fish and wildlife, and their habitat; and (c) to protect upland
resources, tropical biological communities, freshwater wetlands, native tropical
vegetation (for example, hardwood hammocks and pinelands), dune ridges and beaches,
wildlife, and their habitat. Ordinance 019-2009 is inconsistent with Section
380.0552(7), Florida Statutes, Principles for Guiding Development because it is
directing growth to an area within known, probable, or potential threatened or
endangered species habitat and may increase secondary impacts to the habitat value and
environmental sensitivity.
Further, Ordinance O18-2009 is inconsistent with Rule 9J-5.012(3)(c)1, F.A.C., to limit
the specific and cumulative impacts of development or redevelopment on wetlands,
water quality, wildlife habitat, living marine resources, and beach and dune systems.
The request for increased intensity and density adjacent to land containing threatened
3
and endangered species is inconsistent with Rule 9J-5.006(3xc)2, F.A.C., which
requires provision for compatibility for adjacent lands and Rule 9J-5.006(3)(b)4, F.A.C.,
to ensure the protection of natural resources.
2. The Department specifically finds the Comprehensive Plan amendment is inconsistent
with the following rule and statutory provisions: Sections 163.3177(1), (2), (6)(a), (d),
(8), (9) and (I Oxa); and Sections 163.3 l 78(2)(b), Florida Statutes; Rules 9J-5.005(2),
(S)(a) and (b); 9J-5.006(2)ft (3)(c)2, (3xb)4, (3)(c)6, 9J-5.012 (2)(b), (3)(b)l, (3xc)1
and 2; 9J-5.013(l) and 9J-5.013(2)(b)3 and 4, (2)(c)3, 5, 6 and (3); Florida
Administrative Code.
B. Recommended rem2dial actions. The above inconsistencies may be remedied by taking
the following action:
The Department recommends the County either rescind the Future Land Use Map
amendment associated with Ordinance Number 018-2009 or adopt a site specific policy
to define and restrict the amount of development potential and types of development
allowed for these parcels. A site specific policy can recognize and legitimize the currem
non -conforming uses that exist on the parcels as well as prevent impacts to threatened
and endangered species and their habitat.
II. CONSISTENCY V4/rM M&STATE COMPRE FNSIVE PLAN
A. Inconsistent provisions. The amendment is inconsistent with the State Comprehensive
Plan goals and policies set forth in Section 187.201, Florida Statutes, including the following
provisions:
Goal (8)(a) Coastal and Marine Resources, Policies (b) 4, 5 and 6: Protect coastal
resources, marine resources, and dune systems from the adverse effects of development.
Develop and implement a comprehensive system of coordinated planning, management,
and land acquisition to ensure the integrity and continued attractive image of coastal
4
areas. Encourage land and water uses which are compatible with the protection of
sensitive coastal resources.
Goal (9)(a) Natural Systems and Recreational Lands, Policies (b) 1, 3, 4, 7 and 10:
Conserve forests, wetlands, fish, marine life, and wildlife to maintain their
environmental, economic, aesthetic, and recreational values. Prohibit the destruction of
endangered species and protect their habitats. Establish an integrated regulatory program
to assure the survival of endangered and threatened species within the state. Protect and
restore the ecological functions of wetlands systems to ensure their long-term
environmental, economic, and recreational value. Emphasize the acquisition and
maintenance of ecologically intact systems in all land and water planning, management,
and regulation.
Goal (15)(a) Land Use, Policy (b) I and 2: Promote state programs, investments, and
development and redevelopment activities which encourage efficient development and
occur in area which will have the capacity to service new population and commerce.
Develop a system of incentives and disincentives which encourages a separation of urban
and rural land uses while protecting water supplies, resource development, and fish and
wildlife habitats.
Goal (25)(a) Plan Implementation, Policies (b) 7: Ensure the development of strategic
regional policy plans and local plans that implement and accurately reflect state goals and
policies and that address problems, issues, and conditions that are of particular concern in
a region.
B. Recommended remedial action. These inconsistencies may be remedied by revising the
Comprehensive Plan amendment as described above in Section 1.
III. CONSISTENCY WITH THE PRINCIPLES FOR GUIDING DEVELOPMENT'
A. Inconsistent provision.& The amendment is inconsistent with the Principles for Guiding
Development, Section 380.0552(7), Florida Statutes.
Principle (a) To strengthen local government capabilities for managing land use and
development so that local government is able to achieve these objectives without the
continuation of the area of critical state concern designation.
Principle (b) To protect shoreline and marine resources, including mangroves, coral reef
formations, seagrass beds, wetlands, fish and wildlife, and their habitat.
Principle (c) To protect upland resources, tropical biological communities, freshwater
wetlands, native tropical vegetation (for example, hardwood hammocks and pinelands),
dune ridges and beaches, wildlife, and their habitat-
S. Recommended remedial action. These inconsistencies may be remedied by revising the
Comprehensive Plan amendment as described above in Section I.
CONCLUSIONS
I _ The Amendment is not consistent with the State Comprehensive Plan;
2. The Amendment is not consistent with Chapter 380, Part I, Florida Statutes;
3. The Amendment is not consistent with Chapter 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code;
4. The Amendment is not consistent with the requirements of Chapter 163, Part II, Florida
Statutes;
5. The Amendment is not "in compliance," as defined in Section 163.3184(1)(b) Florida
Statutes; and
6
G. In order to bring the Comprehensive Plan amendments into compliance, the County may
complete the recommended remedial actions described above or adopt other remedial
actions that eliminate the inconsistencies.

EXHIBIT `B" TO STIPULATED SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
GOAL 107
Monroe County shall regulate land use and development activities of scarified and/or filled
portions of parcels containing environmentally sensitive areas, by the enactment of area -

designed to protect natural resources.
Obiective 107.1
Monroe County shall coordinate Land Use with the Elements of the Comprehensive
Plan through Future Land Use Element Sub -Area Policies Applicable to a Specific
Geographic Area. These sub -area policies identify parcels of land that require
narrowly -tailored regulation in order to confine development potential to an area or
extent less than the maximum development potential allowed by the future land use
category. The development parameters established for each sub -area shall be based
either on an inventory of uses and facilities established on the parcel or by data and
analysis supporting the specific sub -area limitations.
Poll , 107.1.2 Specific Limitations on the Ramrod Key Mixed Use Area 1
Only the land uses listed in paragraphs 1-4 below shall be allowed on the parcels
designated Ramrod Key Mixed Use Area 1 on Exhibit B-2 diagram, on which a
concentration of non-residential uses exists, including approximately 15,325
square feet of commercial floor area devoted to the uses listed below.
Exhibit B
1. Storage, warehousing, and processing of equipment and materials utilized
or generated in construction, demolition and land clearing, together with ancillary
activities, including, but not limited to:
a. Administrative offices.
b. Workshops and equipment maintenance areas, outdoors and within
structures.
C. Garages and outdoor parking for construction and demolition
equipment and machinery.
d. Outdoor and covered storage and processing of demolition debris and
construction materials.
e. Storage buildings.
E Above -ground fuel tanks.
2. An antenna supporting structure with accessory building.
3. Residential uses consistent with the former RL future land use map
designation and with the SS land use district . Single family residences shall be
limited to the existing residence (including any replacement thereof) and no more
than four (4) additional single family residences.
4. Outdoor storage, refinishing, repair and/or rebuilding of vehicles, boats and
trailers that do not constitute a heavy industrial use.
Development of the Ramrod Key Mixed Use Area 1 shall be subject to the restrictions set
out below:
Wetlands and hammock areas adjacent to outdoor storage shall be protected
by:
a. Recordation of a conservation easement prohibiting all development
activities on the approximately 8.87 acres of wetlands comprising the
Easterly portion of parcel 00114150-000000. The area to be conserved is
delineated on Exhibits B-1 and B-2.
b. Construction and maintenance of a berm, no less than 3 feet in height, on
scarified land along the Westerly edge of the wetlands portion of parcel
00114150-000000 as depicted on the attached aerial Exhibit B-1 and map
Exhibit B-2 to protect the wetlands from stormwater runoff. Prior to issuing
any permit for berm construction, Monroe County shall require submission
of a stormwater management plan adequate to protect the wetlands portion
of the parcel from degradation attributable to stormwater runoff from the
adjacent scarified portion utilized for outdoor storage, construction, and
demolition activities.
2. Development shall be contingent on any required coordination and/or approval
from the United States Fish & Wildlife Service.

AN ORDINANCE BY THE MONROE COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS APPROVING THE REQUEST BY RUDOLPH & ROSEANN
KRAUSE TRUSTEES TO AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE (FLUM)
DESIGNATION FROM RESIDENTIAL LOW (RL) TO MIXED USE /
COMMERCIAL (MC) FOR PROPERTY LEGALLY DESCRIBED AS SECTION 31,
TOWNSHIP 66 SOUTH, RANGE 29 EAST, RAMROD KEY, PT I MONROE
COUNTY, FLORIDA, HAVING REAL ESTATE NUMBER AS 00114150.000400
AND A PORTION OF PROPERTY LEGALLY DESCRIBED AS SECTION 31,
TOWNSHIP 66 SOUTH, RANGE 29 EAST, RAMROD KEY, PT I MONROE
COUNTY, FLORIDA, HAVING REAL ESTATE NUMBER 00114150.000000;
PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND REPEAL OF INCONSISTENT
PROVISIONS; PROVIDING FOR TRANSMITTAL TO THE DEPARTMENT OF
COMMUNITY AFFAIRS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, during a special scheduled public meeting held on January 26, 2009, the
Monroe County Board of County Commissioners conducted a review and consideration of a
request filed by Roseann 8t Rudolph Krause, to amend the subject property's Future Land Use
Map (FLUM) designation from Residential Low (RL) to Mixed Use / Commercial (MC) in
accordance with Policy 101.4.5 of the Monroe County Year 2010 Comprehensive Plan and §9.5-
511 of the Monroe County Code; and
WHEREAS, the subject property is located at 26351 Old State Road 4A, Ramrod Key,
approximate mile marker 26.5, and is legally described as 31 66 29 Ramrod Key, Pt Lot 1,
Monroe County, Florida, having Real Estate Number 00091090.000000; and
WHEREAS, bused upon the information and documentation submitted, the Planning
Commission makes the following Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law;
L The proposed FLUM amendment is for the western portion (8.46 acres) of real estate
number 00115140.000000 and the entire parcel (3.0I acres) of real estate number
0114150-000400.
2. The proposed FLUM amendment is consistent with Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan Goal 101 manages future growth to enhance the quality of life.
3. The proposed FLUM amendment is consistent with Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan Objective 101.4 which maintains the community characters and
protects natural resources by regulating future development and redevelopment.
Pap 2or4
4. The proposed FLUM amendment is consistent with Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan Policy 101.4.5 which establishes the Mixed Use / Commercial
FLUM criteria.
5. The proposed FLUM amendment is consistent with Monroe County Year 2010
Comprehensive Plan Goal 105 which implements smart growth policies and recognizes
the finite capacity for new development without compromising the natural environment
and directs development into Tier III lands.
6. Staff has determined that the proposed FLUM amendment is consistent with the
following provisions and intent of Sec. 9.5-51 l(dx5)b of the Monroe County Code, Land
Development Regulations: (iii) Data errors, (iv) New issues and (v) Data updates.
7. Staff finds proposed FLUM amendment consistent with the Principles for Guiding
Development as a whole and not inconsistent with any one principle. The proposed area
is cleared, scarified and developed and will not significantly affect natural resources.
S. MCC Section 102-158 maintains the proposed FLUM amendment may not permit an
adverse change in community character. Staff has determined the proposed future land
use map designation to Mixed Use / Commercial (MC) will not adversely change
community character.
9. Local roads are already in place and have been well maintained.
10. The 11.47 acres are scarified and developed. Effects on natural resources are not
anticipated.
11. The proposed FLUM amendment will encourage commercial development to remain on
disturbed lands rather than encroaching on environmentally sensitive area.
12. The 2008 U. S. 1 Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study for Monroe County indicates a
LOS of "A" from East Shore Drive to Torch Ramrod Bridge (MM 25 to MM 27.5).
13. The FLUM amendment may affect solid waste. Monroe County has a haul out contract
through September 20, 2016 which provides the capacity to remove any solid waste.
14. The 100 gallons per person per day of potable water is commonly accepted as appropriate
and is reflected in Policy 701.1.1 of the Monroe County Year 2010 Comprehensive Plan.
15. MCC Section 114-4 requires that all developments retain stormwater on site following
Best Management Practices (BMP's).
16. The proposed FLUM amendment will not adversely affect Objective 102.3.1 and will
encourage infill development to remain on already existing developed land.
WHEREAS, the Planning & Environmental Resources Department Staff has found that
all of the required standards are met and recommends approval of the application; and
WHEREAS, the Monroe County Planning Commission held a public hearing in
Marathon on November 4, 2008 and based on the facts presented at the meeting, the Planning
Commission recommended approval of the request;
Pap 3 of A
