COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA
AMENDING SECTION 2-700(B) OF THE
MONROE COUNTY CODE TO REMOVE
THE REQUIREMENT THAT MEMBERS OF

COMMITTEE (AHAC) BE APPOINTED BY
RESOLUTION ; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ALL ORDINANCES
INCONSISTENT HEREWITH; PROVIDING FOR
TRANSMITTAL TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE AND
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Monroe County, Florida
(hereinafter "Board") enacted Ordinance 014-2008, 014-2015; and 004-2021 to implement
the direction of F.S. 420.9076 to establish an Affordable Housing Advisory Committee
(AHAC); and
WHEREAS, when F.S. 420.9076 was first enacted, it required that appointments be
made by resolution; and
WHEREAS, when F.S. 420.9076 was updated in 2016 through the enactment of
chapter 2016-210,the requirement that appointments be made by resolution was stricken from
the statute; and
WHEREAS, when the Board adopted ordinance 004-2021 to conform Section 2-700
of the County Code to new requirements in F.S. 420.9076, the requirement that appointments
be made by resolution was retained; and
WHEREAS, the Board appoints members to several other advisory committees
without adopting a resolution for each appointment; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that retaining the formality of requiring a resolution for
each appointment to the AHAC serves no meaningful purpose and, in fact, results in the
unnecessary expenditure of staff time.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY,FLORIDA:
