HUTTON : For the record, this meeting is being 4 held upon request of the County Attorney Suzanne Hutton, 5 who announced at a prior BOCC meeting held on May 18th, 6 that I needed advice in the matter of Judi ' s House, Inc . , 7 versus Monroe County, Case Number CA K 10-187 . At that 8 meeting, the board approved holding today' s closed 9 session and public notice was given through public 10 announcement of the meeting, at the May 18th BOCC meeting 11 and through publication of the June 15th, 11 -- 2011 BOCC 12 meeting agenda on the County' s Web site . 13 For the record, and the benefit of the court 14 reporter, each of us will state our name and position 15 starting with the commission . 16 Commissioner Wigington, you want to start . 17 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Kim Wigington, district one 18 commissioner . 19 COMMISSIONER RICE : David Rice, district four, 20 county commissioner . 21 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Heather Carruthers, district 22 three, county commissioner . 23 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : George Nugent, district two . 24 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Sylvia Murphy, district five, 25 county commissioner .

SHILLINGER: Bob Shillinger, chief assistant 8 county attorney. 9 MS . HUTTON : Just as a reminder, we will only be 10 discussing settlement negotiations and strategy relating 11 to litigation expenditures . You can not take decisive 12 action at this meeting . Any decisions the board would 13 make concerning this case would have to be done in a 14 meeting open to the public . And the attorneys can only 15 provide information, and you can provide direction to the 16 attorneys -- 17 MR. SHILLINGER: Are we talking -- 18 MS . HUTTON : -- advice . 19 MR. SHILLINGER: -- Judi ' s House or Galleon Bay? 20 MS . HUTTON : Judi ' s House . 21 MR. SHILLINGER: Okay. Derek is going to get up 22 here in a second and talk to you about a strategy session 23 we would like to -- strategy we would like to employ with 24 Judi ' s House . 25 Briefly, Judi ' s House is a takings case involving a All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 4 1 property that had a condition that was imposed on it when 2 it went through administrative relief . That they put a 3 conservation easement on one of the additional lots that 4 they weren ' t seeking to develop . And they sued on that 5 basis that that was an unconstitutional exaction and 6 Derek can explain the law on that, and has a 7 recommendation that we rescind that portion of the 8 administrative relief provision to moot out their case . 9 All right . I ' ll turn it over to Derek . 10 MR. HOWARD : Good afternoon, Commissioners . Bob 11 mentioned that the property at issue includes three 12 parcels on Sugarloaf Key. And in December of 2009, 13 Judi ' s House filed suit against the County. And it ' s a 14 two-count complaint . 15 The first count seeks declaratory relief and 16 therein, they argue that they have a right to develop the 17 subject property without regard to the County' s Rate of 18 Growth Ordinance . 19 And both Richard Shine and myself, Richard Shine 20 being the attorney for the Department Of Community 21 Affairs, believe that this is really nothing short of a 22 pretty frivolous claim. And if we -- in all likelihood 23 we ' ll be seeking attorney' s fees pursuant to statutory 24 provision that allows us to do so . 25 We ' ll provide notice to opposing counsel that we do All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 5 1 believe this claim is frivolous . And they haven ' t had an 2 opportunity to withdraw that claim. If they don ' t and 3 they lose, then we would be entitled to seek costs and 4 fees . So we ' re not real concerned about the declaratory 5 relief count . 6 The count that I 'm more concerned about is the 7 takings count . What they allege is that when they came 8 to the Board Of County Commissioners seeking 9 administrative relief, after being in the Rate Of Growth 10 Ordinance queue for four years, without receiving 11 allocation, but they should have just been entitled to an 12 allocation for parcel seven . Instead, what this 13 commission did is, it did grant administrative relief in 14 the form of one allocation, but with conditions that they 15 file conservation easements for lots four and five . 16 Now, what happened with it after that, they never 17 came back to the board. And I believe Commissioner 18 Nugent, you said that, you know, if your clients don ' t 19 like this, come on back and we can renegotiate this 20 relief . They didn ' t come back. And so they went and 21 they filed suit . Now -- 22 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : Directly, as a -- 23 MR. HOWARD : No . This is an Andy Tobin lawsuit . 24 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Remind me . When was it first 25 brought to the Board? All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 6 1 MR. HOWARD : It went to the Board -- well, the Board 2 passed the resolution, I believe it was in January of 3 2009 . I think the public hearing was heard, maybe, in 4 December of 2008 . So it was a couple years ago . 5 And I am here before you today, seeking two things . 6 One is to recommend that the Board amend the resolution 7 that was adopted, that is to grant administrative relief 8 in the form of an allocation without conditions of the 9 conservation easements for four and five . And the second 10 is to obtain authorization to third party and the 11 Department of Community Affairs . 12 The declaratory relief count is based almost 13 exclusively on a settlement agreement that they have with 14 the Department Of Community Affairs to which the Count P Y � Y 15 was not a party. And it ' s based on this settlement 16 agreement that they make a rather attenuated argument 17 that we ' re making, that they ' re exempt from ROGO . 18 I ' ve spoken with Richard Shine, they -- 19 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Based on what, would they base 20 that exemption from ROGO? 21 MR. HOWARD : Well, we ' re still kind of scratching 22 our heads at that one . We ' re not -- 23 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : It ' s Tobin . 24 MR. HOWARD : We ' re not really sure what the argument 25 is . All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 1 MR. SHILLINGER: Tobin world. Tobin ' s law. 2 MR. HOWARD: But we feel that, you know, the best 3 thing to do, even though I 'm pretty confident that we can 4 prevail on this count, is just to bring the state at the 5 table . It will make it easier for them to say what they 6 think, you know, the settlement agreement stands for . 7 And it would just be, as far as the evidentiary issues, 8 it would just be easier having them at the table . 9 I ' ve already spoken to Richard Shine . And they, you 10 know, will not oppose a third-party complaint . He agrees 11 that this would just be the easiest thing to do . And we 12 really are here because of that agreement that they 13 entered into with the plaintiff . So, I mean, we do have 14 a right to file that complaint . 15 So that would -- that is what I 'm here to seek 16 authorization to do . But I want to backup to the first 17 recommendation which is to amend the resolution . Now, 18 why would you do this? The short answer is that it would 19 limit the takings claim. But I ' ve worked very closely 20 with the staff of the Growth Management Division and they 21 also support amending the resolution for two reasons . 22 First, Judi ' s House did not accept the 23 administrative relief . So their application has remained 24 in the ROGO queue . They have been ascending . It ' s 25 expected that they, without administrative relief, may All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 8 1 obtain an allocation, perhaps, as early as next quarter . 2 So they ' re going to get an allocation anyway. So 3 why not just go ahead and give it to them now, and moot 4 out the takings case . It would be better if the board 5 did that than, you know, allow them to ascend, during the 6 course, but then still have this resolution that, you 7 know, Mr . Tobin can go into court and say, well, you 8 know, they delayed the relief and the allocation . 9 But, secondly, the conservation concerns that this 10 board expressed, back in 2008, as to parcels four and 11 five, should really, theoretically, be addressed, you 12 know, if we just allow ROGO, and the tier system to, you 13 know, to take effect with respect to these parcels . 14 There are applications for allocations or building 15 permits . So they would still have to, of course, file 16 for parcels four and five, but they have not . So, you 17 know, if they do they' ll have to go through what they' ve 18 gone through, with respect to parcel seven . 19 They are tier one lots . So, you know, they may or 20 may not get an allocation if they do that . But we just 21 think that this is, probably, the safest way for the 22 County to go, given the unconstitutional exaction 23 standard. 24 There are really two parts of that test and I think 25 that, you know, clearly the first test is met . You know, All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 9 1 what the board asked them to do is related to a 2 legitimate, public purpose of conservation . But it ' s 3 really, the second part of the test is whether it ' s 4 really proportionate . And that ' s a pretty subjective 5 standard. And I don ' t have a lot of case law that would 6 tell you where a court ' s going to go on that one . So, 7 you know, there is some exposure to liability, if we were 8 to proceed on the merits . 9 Now, I 'm not saying that I can ' t argue a lot of 10 other things, such as, you know, affirmative defenses of 11 ripeness . My opinion, the Board' s resolution granting 12 administrative relief in the form of an allocation, with 13 the conditions, is not a final decision that allows them 14 to file a takings claim because it ' s really not a 15 decision . They didn ' t have to accept it . I mean, 16 they' re, you know, still competing with ROGO . 17 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : And they didn ' t accept it . 18 MR. HOWARD : And they didn ' t accept it . And there 19 was an expression by this Board that it wasn ' t final . 20 You know, if you don ' t like it, come back . They didn ' t 21 do that . 22 So I think that I could defend, you know, everything 23 but the merits of that decision . But if a court were to 24 say, well, build one lot, but give up two, you know, we 25 run some risk there . And I would rather avoid that . And All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 10 1 why go there if they ' re going to get an allocation 2 without the conditions anyway . 3 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : Sure . 4 MR. HOWARD : So that would -- 5 MR. SHILLINGER: Derek, are these lots contiguous? 6 MR. HOWARD : I 'm sorry? They were -- 7 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Yes . 8 MR. HOWARD : Yes . They were contiguous . Lot six 9 was developed. 10 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : I take that back. They 11 weren ' t aggregated, at the time? 12 MR. HOWARD : No . 13 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : Are they aggregated now? 14 MR. HOWARD : No . 15 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : So they would have to go out 16 for permits -- 17 MR. HOWARD : Yes . 18 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: -- if they chose to, on those 19 lots? 20 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : How does that work in Tobin 21 world? 22 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Was that, I told you so, in Tobin 23 world? 24 MR. HOWARD : In Tobin world they don ' t believe in 25 exaction . All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 11 1 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : But who thinks they don ' t have 2 to belong in ROGO? 3 MR. HOWARD : Well -- 4 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : And why? 5 MR. HOWARD : -- interestingly enough, I had -- I 6 deposed his client, Mr . Caprotti, who is the sole 7 shareholder of Judi ' s House, a couple weeks ago . And he 8 didn ' t think that he was exempt from ROGO . I mean, this 9 is clearly an argument that Tobin himself is 10 constructing . 11 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : What does Judi ' s House do? What 12 does Judi ' s House mean? 13 MR. HOWARD : I -- it ' s -- I 'm not sure of the origin 14 of the name, but 7 they ' re just a land development -- Y P 15 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Oh, okay. 16 MR. HOWARD : -- corporation . That Mr . Caprotti -- 17 he lives in Italy and -- 18 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Oh, now I get it . 19 MR. HOWARD : He ' s taken a renewed interest in the 20 Florida Keys, so . We didn ' t hear from him for awhile, 21 but we ' ll be hearing, I guess, a lot more from him in the 22 coming years . 23 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : So -- 24 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : I concur with what we ' ve 25 talked about . All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 12 1 MR. SHILLINGER: What we can do is -- 2 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: I do too . 3 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Yes . 4 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: And I 'm wondering, I just -- 5 and I really don ' t care what Andy Tobin thinks . But, I 6 wonder why he thinks the guy doesn ' t have to sit for 7 ROGO . 8 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : You ' ve got better things to 9 do -- 10 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: He sat -- 11 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : -- than try to figure that 12 out . 13 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: He sat in ROGO. 14 MR. HOWARD : Yes . 15 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : Until he got to the 16 administrative relief point . 17 MR. HOWARD : Right . 18 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : And then we gave him 19 administrative relief with restrictions . 20 MR. HOWARD : Right . 21 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: So he chose not to take those . 22 He stayed in ROGO . So you want to get him out of ROGO a 23 little bit early? 24 MR. HOWARD : It will be a little earlier, yes . 25 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : So fine . All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 13 1 COMMISSIONER NUGENT : Next item. 2 MR. SHILLINGER: So what we ' ll do is, we ' ll bring 3 you back a resolution next month to formally rescind the 4 conditions on that . 5 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Okay. 6 MR. HOWARD : And again, this will be moot, you know, 7 the takings count . So we ' ll have to, you know, proceed 8 forth on the declaratory judgment count . 9 Now, this count, in some types of -- 10 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Hold on . What is that? 11 MR. HOWARD : On the declaratory relief count? 12 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Yes . 13 MR. HOWARD : This is the count where Andy is, you 14 know, hoping to prevail with his argument that he ' s P 9 P g e s 15 exempt from ROGO . 16 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Well, the point is, if we ' re 17 going to go ahead and do this for him, what -- 18 MR. HOWARD: Well, that would only take care of the 19 unconstitutional exactions claim, which only relates to 20 parcels four and five, that they do not have applications 21 for . 22 COMMISSIONER MURPHY : Okay . 23 MR. HOWARD : But what they are saying is that, you 24 know, even if the board were to do that, that they don ' t 25 need applications for four and five because ROGO does not All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 14 1 apply to them. 2 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: To four and five? 3 MR. HOWARD : To four and five . 4 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Are four and five different -- 5 COMMISSIONER MURPHY: Knock yourself out, and argue 6 that one . 7 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : -- than three, in some way? 8 MR. HOWARD : Well, they did develop -- some of these 9 lots were aggregated. And there were, following the 10 settlement agreement with the Department Of Community 11 Affairs, the Department said, you have a maximum density 12 of four units on these four lots . And so there are, you 13 know, there are four lots, one ' s developed. They have 14 three more that they can potentially develop . But under 15 the settlement agreement they only have -- 16 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : They only have two . 17 MR. HOWARD : -- they have density for two more . And 18 in order to get the fourth one, they would have to 19 aggregate or transfer in transferable development rights . 20 They have done none of that . And it ' s apparent to me, 21 you know, based on the deposition of Mr . Caprotti, that 22 they just haven ' t really been thinking about much in the 23 last 10 years, so . 24 But they' re gearing up again . So we want to, you 25 know, take this claim from them and then get the other All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 15 1 thing resolved. And I think the court will agree that 2 they, in fact, have to play by the rules that everyone 3 else has to play by. 4 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Yes . 5 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Can we not change the 6 resolution out of the goodness of our heart, with the 7 condition that it takes care of any other issues that 8 could arise and they can ' t come back to us for any other 9 thing and they drop everything -- 10 MR. HOWARD : Well -- 11 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : -- from now on, forever and ever? 12 MR. HOWARD : Seeing as this is a resolution that is 13 an administrative relief resolution, conceivably, the 14 commission could condition the acceptance of the relief 15 on them waiving their declaratory relief count . But I 16 don ' t see why they would do that, given the fact that 17 they, you know, can get the allocation without the relief 18 and, you know, maybe next quarter or the quater 19 thereafter . So I wouldn ' t recommend that the Board do 20 that . 21 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Well, and that ' s pretty 22 much a slam dunk anyway. I 'm just talking about 23 something on the other lots . 24 MR. HOWARD : Again, I don ' t think that they would 25 have to . They would have to accept the relief in order All Keys Reporting—Court Reporters—(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 16 1 for that -- for them to actually waive the claim. 2 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Oh . 3 MR. HOWARD : And I don ' t think if it were 4 conditioned that way, I don ' t think that they would 5 accept the relief . 6 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Okay. 7 MR. SHILLINGER: What we ' re trying to do is moot out 8 their claim -- 9 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Sure . 10 MR. SHILLINGER: -- by removing that restriction . 11 So, basically, forcing it down their throat . 12 COMMISSIONER WIGINGTON : Okay. Understood. 13 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : So you don ' t need a motion, you 14 have our direction? 15 MS . HUTTON : No . You couldn ' t make a motion anyway, 16 at this point, it would have to be a motion in open 17 session . 18 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Right . 19 MS . HUTTON : So I think we ' re ready to close the 20 closed session on Judi ' s House, reopen the open session, 21 so that I can ask for -- 22 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : Okay. Judi ' s House closed 23 session is closed. I need to reopen the open session; 24 right? Okay. The opened session is reopened. The open 25 session is closed. All Keys Reporting-Court Reporters-(305)289-1201 Locations in Key Largo,Marathon&Key West 17 1 MS . HUTTON: No. Wait . Wait . Wait . We have to 2 wait for -- 3 MAYOR CARRUTHERS : You have to read your stuff 4 again. 5 MS . HUTTON: I 'm sorry. 6 MR. HOWARD: Bob is grabbing her. 7 MS . HUTTON: Yes . Bob is grabbing her.
